One of the great needs identified in our resent research is family education. With the family of military veterans being a primary, long term support ally, providing families with instruction, advice, and counsel on how to "be there" for their veteran is critical.

Family education can take many forms. In person group, in person one-on-one, telephonic, online video chat, online text chat, and online video library. Each format has its strengths and weaknesses. AHR is committed to testing each modality to establish a best-practices and effectiveness rating of each. In any case, the result will be additional resources to prepare families to care for their wounded or PTSD recovering veteran.
