Operation Military Kids

Operation Military Kids is a 4-H youth program that:

• Creates community support networks for military youth "in our own backyard" when soldier parents are deployed.
• Delivers recreational, social and educational programs for military youth living in civilian communities.
• Supports military kids coping with the stress of knowing their deployed parents may be in harm's way.
• Collaborates with schools to ensure that staff are attuned to the unique needs of military students.
• Educates the public on the impact of the deployment cycle on soldiers, families, kids and the community as a whole.
• Becomes a part of the ongoing 4-H Program in the locations where there are military families.
