Honoring Our Heroes 🎖️ On this Memorial Day, we are deeply honored to remember and celebrate all those who have served and continue to serve our country. Your bravery and dedication inspire us every day. At Madi's Movement, we are committed to supporting foster teens that often lack the support system many take for granted. Here are some important stats about foster teens and military service: 🦅 Around 10% of former foster youth join the military. Many foster teens see the military as a pathway to stability and opportunity. 🗽Foster youth who join the armed forces often excel due to their resilience and adaptability. 💬 Comment 'Heroes' below to learn more and see how even the smallest action can make a big difference. Follow us for a glimpse into the world of foster teens and how every act of kindness adds up to a huge difference. ✨ 🙏 Thank you to all who serve and to those who support our foster teens. Together, we can create lasting change and build a brighter future for all. #MemorialDay #HonoringOurHeroes #FosterTeens #MadisMovement #SupportFosterYouth #Empowerment #EducationForAll #Military #Army #USA #Love #America #Honor#SupportFosterTeens #MakingADifference #FosterCareAwareness #FosterYouthAwareness #FosterCareSystem #FosterParents #FosterParent #FosterParenting #FosterCare #FosterAwarenessMonth #NonProfit #MakeADifference #FYP #NonProfitOrganization #Sibblings #Moving #Struggles

Children of parents deployed in the military face unique challenges that can significantly impact their well-being and development.

Some struggles include: • Emotional stress and anxiety stemming from parental separation • Difficulty adjusting to frequent relocations and changes in schools and communities • Behavioral issues and academic struggles due to the disruption in routine and support systems Support and resources available/worth seeking: • Military Family Life Counselors offering counseling services to help children cope with emotional challenges • Military Family Support Centers providing programs and activities to strengthen family bonds and foster community connections such as @militaryfamilyorg (a percentage of all Couples’ Coffee Co sales are donated to this organization) • Schools offering support systems such as counselors and support groups to assist military-connected children in adjusting to new environments We know this can be a difficult time to navigate, but know we’re here for you.

PTSD is a hard disease that plagues our Veterans and First Responders daily. Sometimes they Don't realize it affects them as bad as it does. More importantly it affects our families as well. At the core, Veterans and First Responders at times don't understand how to process all the emotions they are feeling. A lot of times they try using avoidance as a way to cope with their trauma. The Warfighters Mission's Computers for Heroes Program was designed to give the Warfighters a chance at life again. We build these custom computers and give them to our Warfighters who are struggling to leave the house due to PTSD. Our hope is that they will be able to attend our Peer Support or Ministry services online with the hope that it will get them to possibly attend in person. As we all know, a lot of things to include Dr. Appointments are now being held remotely online. This will at least afford them a little more freedom. If you would like to nominate a Veteran or First Responder in Colorado for this program, please visit us at https://lnkd.in/g5dMbNm5 Together we can make a difference. #HonorOurHeroes #StrengthAndResilience #thewarfightersmission #military #supportourtroops #SupportOurFirstResponders #usarmy #usnavy #usmarines #usairforce #USSpaceForce #uscoastguard #usnationalguard #firstresponders #Charity #nonprofit #nonprofitorganization #veterannonprofit #Colorado #coloradosprings #coloradospringscolorado #communityoutreach #PeerSupport #ComputersForHeroes #ChristmasForHeroes
