Supporting Alabama's Military Kids and Families
The mission of Operation: Military Kids is to support deployed National Guard, Reserve, and Active Duty service members’ children living in communities across the country by:
(1) Creating networks of people, organizations, and other resources to support children and youth in military families, in the communities where they live.
(2) Delivering a wide range of recreational, social, and educational programs for military youth living in civilian communities.
(3) Acknowledging the strengths and sacrifices of military kids as everyday home front heroes.
(4) Supporting military kids coping with the stress of knowing their deployed family members may be in harm’s way.
(5) Educating the public on the impact of the deployment cycle on service members, families, kids, and the community as a whole.
