LIFE AFTER IRAQ AND AFGHANISTAN

     This country will experience an event sometime during the year 2010 when between 125,000 and 175,000 service men and women will return from the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.  Will the structure of rehabilitation be ready for this increase in perspective clients?  What should the support structure look like and what services need to be in place?  Life after Iraq and Afghanistan will happen.  This keystone question is what will be the quality of life?  This is our challenge.
