A NETWORK MILITARY FAMILIES CAN RELY ON

The Military Family Advisory Network was founded in 2013 to meet a persisting need in the military community: the ability to quickly and effectively connect to military families.

MFAN uses a peer-leader network, scientific research, and collaboration to stay ahead of and respond to emerging needs.

We connect military families to the information, people, and resources they depend on to navigate all phases of military life.

We create programs that deliver impact, fill gaps, and address needs by introducing military families to information and resources. What makes our programs unique is our content delivery model. We understand how modern military families digest information, and build our programs accordingly.
