NORFOLK, Va., Nov. 5, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- November is National Military Family Month, a time to recognize the daily sacrifices of the loved ones who support our brave service members. To show commitment and dedication to military families, ValueOptions®, Inc., a health improvement company specializing in mental and emotional wellbeing and recovery, is enhancing their promotion of the National Military Family Association's MyMilitaryLife app by adding it to more than 200 commercial and federal client sites and specially spotlighting the app for military-affiliated members. The free app, available for Android and iPhone, connects military families with support resources customized to fit their busy lifestyle.
From long-distance moves to the challenges of deployment, military families give so much to support the men and women who serve our country. In between, they face everyday family matters like finding reliable child care, budgeting, and keeping healthy. Large issues or small, MyMilitaryLife connects military families to crucial support for logistical and personal needs at every level—all in one place, and all at the touch of a button.
Designed with the mobile military lifestyle in mind, MyMilitaryLife delivers an on-the-go network of practical resources, to-do lists and reminders, all customized by service branch, location and family needs. Users can choose to be guided through 11 different "Life Paths," including support for moving and housing needs; spousal employment and education; raising kids; coping during deployment; and transition needs.
In addition to featuring MyMilitaryLife on more than 200 of its commercial and federal client sites, during the month of November, ValueOptions is specially promoting the app to select clients who employ a large veteran or active duty population. The app will also be spotlighted on ValueOptions' Achieve Solutions website, which serves more than 30 million members, many of whom are a part of military families.
"So much is asked of our military families, and time and again, these families respond with selflessness and grace through all sorts of unique challenges," said Kerry Mooney, ValueOptions' Executive Vice President and President, Federal Division. "We are so proud to recognize these families during National Military Family Month, and all year round with the resources and support offered by MyMilitaryLife."
