- This report is the result of an effort led by the National Security Staff and Domestic Policy Council responding to the Presidential Study Directive-9 calling on all Cabinet Secretaries and other agency heads to find better ways to provide our military families with the support they deserve. The result will be a unified Federal Government approach to help ensure: the U.S. military recruits and retains America's best, allowing it to maintain the high standards which have become a hallmark of our armed forces; service members can maintain both strong families and a high state of readiness; family members can live fulfilling lives while supporting their service member(s); and the American people better understand and appreciate the experience, strength, and commitment of those who serve and sacrifice on their behalf. This document provides the Federal Government's response to that challenge by identifying four strategic priorities that address the primary challenges facing our military families: (1) Enhance the well-being and psychological health of the military family. (2) Ensure excellence in military children's education and their development. (3) Develop career and educational opportunities for military spouses. (4) Increase child care availability and quality for the Armed Forces.
