Today we honor all of the veterans who have and are currently serving our country through military service. Veterans and their families make huge sacrifices for our freedom, and can face unique challenges that other families are not exposed to. The Child Mind Institute is a great online resource that focuses on supporting healthy brain development and empowering children and their families with help, hope, and answers. They include strategies for dealing with the strain of deployment in a healthy way and give advice on some of the other challenges military families can face.
