Military families adjust to the long-time challenges that come with military service, but the global pandemic has added to their anxieties.

CMSI talked with filmmaker Elena Miliaresis, producer of the military family documentary, “When Time Stands Still,” about how families cope and what civilian families can learn from their resilience.

CMSI wants to know how your family and community are coping during the COVID-19 pandemic. Please send your stories to Leif Walcutt (lwalcutt@defensecommunities.org) or Randy Ford (rford@defensecommunities.org).
