Provides military parents and caregivers with several ways to mitigate the negative effects of deployment including maintaining well-being, fostering positive family dynamics, and using effective parenting strategies.

Although military children may exhibit behavioral and emotional changes, including worry about the safety of their deployed parent/caregiver (and even you), most military children will demonstrate remarkable resilience.
