Military Families Support Group
Today's military family faces a lifestyle that is comprised of frequent deployments, which results in increased family separations. This often proves to be a stressful challenge for military families. This community is dedicated to the families that are dealing with the unique challenges of distance and military-related stress.
I have two sons in the Army right now. One of them talk with me frequently and the other will not talk with me at all.
I have been trying to figure out what to do about the one who won't talk with me, and today I went to www.army.mil and found a program for military families, both enlisted and extended families of enlisted members.
If you need to connect with an enlisted loved one, or are an enlisted family in need of relational help, this is a great place to get started.

you can also find it by going to the army home page, www.army.mil , click on "A-Z" at the top of the page, and then find the "Chaplain office" link under "C". Then click on "strong bonds" at the left of the page.
