LA CROSSE. (WXOW) — A new program is assisting veterans with recovery.

It’s called the Tactical Recovery Group and it gives veterans ownership over the program.

It creates an atmosphere where veterans can be with other people who understand where they’re coming from. During their recovery, the program offers the availability of people to talk to who have been through similar situations.

“One of the big things that we’re promoting is the fact that we’re veterans, I’m someone who has walked through the same struggles that these veterans have been in and we’re all gonna work together to strengthen and build on their recovery,” said veterans programming coordinator, JT Savor.

This program is open to all veterans. It doesn’t matter what their discharge status is or if they have seen combat or not. All are welcome.
