FIRST LADY MICHELLE OBAMA AND DR. JILL BIDEN TO LAUNCH MILITARY FAMILIES INITIATIVE

A Nationwide Call to Action

First Lady Michelle Obama and Dr. Jill Biden will launch a national initiative to support and honor America’s service members and their families on Tuesday, April 12th at the White House.

The initiative aims to educate, challenge, and spark action from all sectors of our society — citizens, communities, businesses, non-profits, faith based institutions, philanthropic organizations, and government — to ensure military families have the support they have earned.

In the days following the launch, Mrs. Obama and Dr. Biden will travel across the country to highlight the courage and strength of our military families, and the ability of our veterans and military spouses to strengthen our communities. They will also meet with men and women who are taking action, and lending a hand to those that have served our Nation.

For years, Mrs. Obama and Dr. Biden have been committed to supporting our Nation’s military families, advocating for their priorities, and shedding light on their stories. They have visited military communities at home and abroad, learned about the unique challenges our troops, veterans and their families face, and have seen firsthand the commitment to service that defines so many of our military families. This initiative builds on the President’s directive to establish a coordinated and comprehensive Federal approach to supporting military families, and will work to reconnect military families with all communities.
