FRANKLIN — Asking for help is never easy, and for the new generation of proud veterans, it can seem almost impossible.
That's why outreach coordinators for the Home Base Program told Franklin Veterans Agent Bob Fahey yesterday that they want to spread the word about new services for Iraq and Afghanistan veterans suffering from combat-related stress and traumatic brain injury.
"It's our mission to help veterans," veteran outreach coordinator Kenneth Isaksen said.

Sean Kennedy, the program's leader for veterans outreach, said it offers a variety services not found elsewhere.
