Month of the Military Child is observed each April to honor and celebrate military children and youth for their service, commitment, and sacrifice in support of our Joint Base mission. The observance reinforces our commitment to provide quality care and positive youth development for a bright future.
This year’s theme is “Celebrating Military Children and Youth: Strength in Every Story.” Every military child faces their changing environment with creativity and resiliency. They get to experience the world and meet people through opportunities unique to the military community, and their stories are magnificent!
