Preparing for Deployments

Deployment is a fact of military life but each deployment is different and every family member may react differently to deployment. Being prepared can help ease the stress and give you confidence in your ability to prepare, adapt and overcome challenges you or your family members might face. Knowing the resources available and where to go if you need assistance can ease you through the deployment and help you look ahead to reunion and reintegration.
