May 25, 2009 – The Battle after Combat: Homeless Female Vets

While it’s hard to nail down an accurate number, the Department of Veterans Affairs estimates that one out of every three homeless people is a veteran. More than 150,000 vets are homeless at any given time, but many more experience homelessness at some point in their lives. Female vets often find the services that are available cater to men. This Memorial Day, FSRN brings you an exclusive documentary: The Battle after Combat: Homeless Female Vets, with reporters Yasmin Madadi and Tami Woronoff.
