And how can you help?
When a mother or father is called up for active military duty, children, the parent left behind, and other loved ones face a complex range of emotions before, during and after deployment.

Psychologist and University of Minnesota professor Abigail Gewirtz, who studies and works with deployed families, sheds light on this important topic and suggests ways we all can help.
