Even before the pandemic, military families said the number one issue facing them was concern over their finances, according to Angela Caban, director of Military Saves.

As we close out Military Saves Month 2021, we wanted to look back at some of our ADC Live conversations about how military families can prepare for their financial futures.

In this special report, ADC’s Grace Marvin talked with Caban, along with a veteran and spouse who struggled with financial difficulties. Tim Ford and Matt Borron then talked with Jim Kim, the bank president of First Command Financial Services about military family financial wellness.
