Here are some military family facts.
More than two million American children have had a parent deploy to Iraq or Afghanistan.
Military children face the following challenges. Lengthy separations from loved-ones Frequent relocations that often end trusted friendships Multiple cycles of adapting to new schools Feelings of isolation.
Food Insecurity Impact
Readiness: Food insecurity is linked to decreased personal and unit readiness among service members.
Retention: Service members experiencing food insecurity are less likely to remain on active duty.
Increased Need: Civilian food pantries are seeing a significant increase in military families seeking their assistance
Spiritual Insecurity Impact
Spiritual Need: The gospel is considered necessary for the military because service members face unique stressors like separation, demanding conditions, and moral challenges, creating a receptive audience for spiritual support and hope.
