Grass-roots group urges help for homeless vets

Ginger Miller pauses and tries to hold back tears when asked about what it was like being a homeless military veteran.

Miller, who served four years in the Navy until 1992, said she spent six months homeless in 1994 with her husband, a former Marine who served for four years until 1993, and her then-1-year-old son.

In May, after she lost her job, Miller decided to start John 14:2 Inc., a nonprofit advocating for homeless and at-risk veterans.
