For Families

Deployments/Homecomings/Changes explained to kids through sesame street characters

When we think of war and deployment, we rarely think of the youngest members of our military families. They often have a difficult time understanding why Mom or Dad needs to leave home, or how things might be different upon their return.

For these children and their families, Sesame Street provides much-needed support and practical education with Talk, Listen, Connect, a multiphase outreach initiative to help kids through deployments, combat-related injuries, and the death of a loved one. Videos, storybooks, and workbooks especially created for this program guide families through these tough transitions by showing how real families — as well as furry monsters — deal with similar circumstances.
