The funding will facilitate the development and dissemination of resources that are grounded in research and best practices, ensuring that families receive the most effective support possible. By focusing on evidence-based strategies, the initiative aims to empower parents within the military community, equipping them with the tools necessary to navigate the complexities of parenting while managing the demands of military life.
