Don't Call Me Resilient™
STORIES OF MILITARY FAMILIES.
SOLUTIONS FOR LASTING CHANGE.
Military families are often told they're resilient. While resilience is something to be proud of, it shouldn't be required when it comes to accessing safe, reliable child care.
This campaign highlights the lived experiences behind that reality and calls for solutions that support families instead of expecting them to overcome unnecessary barriers.


FEATURED STORY
I’m not doing this. I will find a way to make it work.”
When we PCS'd to Fort Leonard Wood two years ago, I had five kids, and my two youngest were just three and two at the time. My employer offered to create a remote position for me so I could keep working through the move, and I was thrilled. Then the panic set in. How was I going to find child care once we got there?
