Military Spouses

Military spouses face unique challenges due to frequent relocations and the demands of military life, which can make it difficult to find and sustain meaningful careers. Over two-thirds of military spouses report that limited access to childcare impacts their ability to work or pursue education. Employment and income stability are vital for these families, as unemployment significantly increases the risk of food insecurity. Programs like the Department of Labor’s TEAMS workshops and American Job Centers provide tailored resources to support military spouses in overcoming these obstacles and achieving their career goals.
