The Comfort Crew for Military Kids

The Comfort Crew for Military Kids delivers proven resources to help military kids and their families connect and build resiliency in the face of extraordinary challenges. The TowerCares grant will support the Comfort Kit Resiliency Program, which provides resources for military children and families navigating life transitions, such as deployment, reintegration, or healing from trauma and grief. The funds will be used to provide 45 Comfort Kits for children of families stationed at Fort Meade Military Base in Maryland. The kits include a stuffed animal, a journal to write in or draw, and a guidebook with strategies for parents to help their children. Families also receive access to an online platform with helpful videos and games.
