Support our soldiers

According to Department of Defense figures, nearly 7,400 Connecticut service men and women have been deployed in harm's way since 2001. Nearly 7,000 active duty military personnel list Connecticut as their residence. Many of these personnel and their families need varying levels of support here in Connecticut during their absence and upon their return. Tapping into this support may often be taxing for even the most seasoned individual.

Having visited our deployed military personnel on several occasions and spoken to their families here at home, I firmly believe that as we regularly call on more of our soldiers, sailors, airmen and marines; to deploy we need to look for innovative ways to improve support for them and their families back home.

Below is a list of resources that provide support and assistance to military families.

Military HOMEFRONT is the official Department of Defense web site for reliable quality of life information designed to help troops and their families, leaders and service providers.
