Nonprofit Helps Female Veterans Back From War

Nov 12, 2012 - A nonprofit group is helping female veterans adjust back to civilian life.

Grace After Fire outreach coordinator Michelle Rosales-Kneubuhl, a Marine, said the group helps veterans "know that there's someone else out there that they can call and talk to and, in confidence, be able to share what it is that they're going through and realize they're not alone."

According to the program, eight out of 10 female veterans report needing support for post-traumatic stress disorder, injuries or military sexual assault.
