A New Reality: Impact of the
Global War on Terrorism
Operation: Military Kids
Ready, Set, Go! Training
Impact of the Global War on Terrorism
Has changed the face of military service for those in the National Guard and U.S. Army Reserve
•Mobilization and deployment at record high levels for all components of the military
•Different needs than traditional military Families
•Primary occupation is not one of “Service Member” and some Families might not consider themselves “military Families”
•Geographically dispersed from others in the same circumstances (not necessarily located near a military installation)
•Family identity changes from “civilian” to “military” with one letter or phone call
Unique Issues for Children/Youth in
Military Families:• Lack of community awareness of and support for Family needs
• Lack of educator preparedness to recognize and meet needs of children/youth of deployed members
• Possible transition from one school to another
• Social/emotional/behavioral reactions may impact youths’ future
• Accessibility and affordability of childcare
• Availability and affordability of after-school programs and youth activities; children home alone
• Frequently unaware of resources to help parents and
children cope
• Difficulty understanding and dealing with media
• Deployment cycle—disrupts Family before, during, and after...and is repeated
Identified Issues for Children/Youth in Military Families:
• Geographically dispersed Families and lack of connection with other youth and Families in similar situation
• Child separation/anxiety issues regarding safety of deployed parent
• Deployed parent absent for significant events
• Less parental involvement from parent at home
• Limited opportunities for youth to attend extracurricular activities
• Teens having increased care of home and younger siblings
• Behavioral changes, peer pressure, lower self-esteem
• Communication with deployed parent
• Need to live with extended Family
• Changes in financial resources
How can OMK State Teams utilize the
Issue Action Planning process to address unique issues facing
children/youth in Military Families?
OPERATION: MILITARY KIDSIssue Action Plan Activity
As a table group use one of the issues
identified during the newspaper activity or one specific to your state and brainstorm
what your OMK State Team can do to address it. List your ideas below.
