Support After Loss

For survivors who have lost their service member, there are specially designed programs and services to help you cope.

You were part of the military family when you supported your service member in his or her mission. And you’re still part of the family now. That’s why the military has designed programs especially for survivors – tools and services to help you cope, make informed decisions, grieve in healthy ways and begin to envision a life with new opportunities.
