 More families of military services members are using GI Bills to attend colleges and universities.  Family members with deployed service members have significantly higher stress than civilians (Davis& Treiber, 2007).  It is estimated that 25 percent of soldiers in Iraq had "significant others" who are not spouses ( Fontaine,2009).  There is no formal support available to military significant others.

 “Unfriendly” policies and procedures  Lack of funds/benefits slow to arrive  Constant worries about the service member’s safety  Increased responsibility in household  Communication Difficulties  “Others don’t understand”  Dealing with other’s insensitive comments after deployment  Dealing with readjustment issues and changes, relationship issues, multiple- deployment, etc. Source: Frantz & Pfeffer (2010)
