Abstract:Objective: To introduce a supplement highlighting the multifaceted challenges and strengths of military families and to emphasize their essential role in individual military readiness, retention, and overall force resilience. Importance: For more than 30 years, the Tri Service Nursing Research Program (TSNRP) has been vital to supporting research that impacts military nursing science and evidence-based practice programs. Furthermore, TSNRP fosters an environment of collaboration among the Air Force, Army, and Navy in developing inquiry relevant to the military member and their families. This unique community of uniformed nurse scientists strives to maintain a continuum of research and evidenced-based practice with a focus of operational readiness, performance, and innovation. Overview: This supplement showcases research that ultimately impacts readiness and retention of the member and their family. The articles within highlight the powerful ways military families support their service members and underscore the vital role these families play in sustaining the military’s strength and resilience. Join us as we explore these themes in greater depth.
