Supporting Military Families in Minnesota
In Minnesota, approximately 11,000 National Guard
and Reserve soldiers have been called to active duty since 9-11.
These soldiers, both men and women, are often parents, partners,
co-workers
and
community leaders. They are our friends, neighbors and family members.

Nearly 2500
National Guard soldiers serving in Iraq received orders that extended
their duty an additional 120 days this winter. Now,
these soldiers
are
returning
home.
We are providing you with some resources to help you learn more about the cycle of deployment and how you can support military families in your community. |
