'Ortiz is one of the new faces among America's homeless veterans. They're younger than homeless male veterans and more likely to bring children. Their number has doubled in the past decade, and there are an estimated 6,500 homeless female veterans on any given night - about 5 percent of the total homeless veterans population.
But women-only programs such as the one Ortiz participates in are few. "It is always hard to find a place or resources or help when you are homeless," said Sen. Patty Murray, D-Wash, a member of the Senate Veterans' Affairs Committee. "It is almost impossible if you are a woman. Most of the VA facilities cater to men, and you can't take a mom with two little kids and put her in the middle of a homeless center with 30 or 40 male veterans."
...
Administrators had worked with male veterans for years and assumed the same types of programs worked for women. They quickly learned when they opened the women's program in 2001 that the women's issues were more complex and required longer treatment.'

If male and female soldiers can fight and get traumatized together, why can't they get better together?
It appears the freedom and liberty parts of history do not repeat themselves as readily as the tyranny and human rights abuses of men.
