Activities
The following are community-based outreach activities geared towards raising awareness and providing support for military kids and their families:
  • Speak Out for Military Kids - A youth speakers’ bureau, formed by military and non-military youth that provide preparedness about military life, deployment, and reunion.
  • Hero Packs - Civilian youth participate in community service projects to assemble and distribute knapsacks filled with a variety of items to be given to military children and youth as a "thank you" for the sacrifices made while their parents are deployed.
  • Mobile Technology Labs - To be used to communicate and connect geographically dispersed "suddenly military" children with their deployed parents.
  •
