OIF/OEF Women Veterans' Retreat Welcome to the Washington State, September 23-28, OEF/OIF Women Veterans’ Retreat! We hope that this will be a rewarding, powerful, and rejuvenating experience for you.                                                The OEF/OIF Women Veterans’ Retreat is meant to be an empowering and affirming way to work on issues common to women who have experienced the human impact of a war zone, and are attempting to resume a fulfilling civilian life. It is meant to be a fun and enjoyable experience, and also an opportunity for you to make whatever personal shifts are necessary to recover from the stress of combat and military service, and move forward into the post-military life that you envision for yourself.                                                                                                Please read the enclosed Retreat Information to see if this retreat appeals to you.
