Post by Blue Star Families

Military family life is shaped by many factors — quality of life, housing, cost of living, relocations, childcare, access to resources, and global conflict. Beginning July 13, Blue Star Families will open the 2026 Military Family Lifestyle Survey to hear directly from military and veteran families about what’s working and what needs to change. Your insights help inform meaningful action. #MFLS2026 #MilitaryFamilies #VeteranTransition #MilitaryLife #PolicyImpact #QualityOfLife Disclaimer: To participate you must be military-connected, 18 years old or older, have access to a device with Internet, and provide consent. The survey is for research purposes only and should take about 20 minutes to complete online. When you share your experiences, you can choose to enter a drawing for 1 of 10 $100 Amazon gift cards. If you have any questions about this research, please contact Dr. Emily Becher at [email protected].
