VETERAN FAMILIES ARE NOT GETTING THE ATTENTION THEY DESERVE

JOIN US NOW

Veteran or civilian parents and their children (aged 11-17) are invited to participate in a study about how their families manage stress and difficult times. This paid study will award you $205 for three fully remote visits.

Unfortunately, there is just too little that is done for veteran families, and we are trying to change that.

Your time will translate into information that will be helpful for policy makers and health providers to consider with this important population. We want to make sure your needs are heard, and your efforts can MAKE A DIFFERENCE.

If you have any questions about our study and would like to speak to a team member, please email us at [email protected] or call us at (929)-266-5064.
