Military service involves more than the person wearing the uniform – families are always a part of that equation.
A team of three University of South Florida psychology doctoral students and a graduate of the School of Social Work are conducting a research study looking at how reintegration affects military veterans and their children.
Their focus looks at how veterans are “reintegrating” to both civilian and academic life and also examines the student veterans’ well-being and that of their children.
The USF Coming Home Project is an anonymous online survey for student veterans who qualify:
- You must currently be enrolled as a student.
- You must be a veteran of Iraq or Afghanistan.
- You have children between the ages of 6 and 18.
The online survey only requires about 15-20 minutes and is anonymous. It examines the impact of deployments on children in military families.
