When a veteran returns from war many times a battle still lies ahead of them, the battle to reenter the business world.   In 2011 decorated Marine veteran Andy Nguyen founded Honor Courage Commitment to help Veterans do just that.

"Veterans needed to be empowered.  They needed to have facilities that would help them go from what a  lot of people experience call hero to zero.  They are a hero in the military, then suddenly they are out and don't know who they are anymore" said Marine veteran and Honor Courage Commitment graduate Rachel Wilson.

Honor courage commitment is a full time 16 week program poised to help many of the 250,000 veterans who continue to transition out of the military annually.  HCC is helping veterans find a new freedom for themselves.
