Do you have children? Have you taken Part 1 of this series for adults? Would you like to learn how to better prepare children for the challenges of having a parent return from a deployment? This session is for you!
Military families have identified reunion as their most challenging time to manage. Having an understanding of the impact of transitioning back from a deployment to everyday life is essential for your entire family – including your returning loved one. Discover useful techniques and tips to have a successful homecoming. Please register in advance.
Join us at a local park and meet others from the military community. Guided storytime will take place for the children as well as some fun in the park! No kids? No problem! Come meet other adults in your area. Please bring sunscreen and water. Registration is not required for this activity.
