What We Do
The National Military Family Association (NMFA) is the leading 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to serving all military families. Since 1969, NMFA has worked with families to identify and solve the unique challenges of military life.
NMFA has been the go-to source for Administration and government officials, members of Congress, and key decision-makers who want to understand the issues facing military families. Between deployments, heightened operational tempo, military-mandated moves, financial challenges, the lasting physical and emotional tolls of war, and other uncertainties unique to military life, military families need more than a voice on Capitol Hill—they deserve our support.
In addition to our advocacy work, NMFA meets the immediate needs of America’s military families with programs designed to support their financial security, well-being, and quality of life, including scholarships for military spouses, support and skill development for military teens, and summer camps for military kids in areas with the highest financial stress.
Together, We're Stronger®
Our Story
In 1969, our Association was founded by a handful of military wives who wanted to ensure their widowed friends were properly cared for.
Two short years later, the Survivor Benefit Plan became law, and the Association has been hard at work ever since.
A small but determined group of spouses around a kitchen table has expanded into a strong force of military families representing all ranks and Services.

Our write-up
National Military Family Association is in our directory because we went looking for resources in this category and confirmed theirs is real and serving this community. What you see above is their own description, quoted from their site. We have not yet added our own write-up — the programs, eligibility and military fit that we check ourselves — and we would rather leave that blank than guess at it.
In the meantime, their official site is the authority: www.militaryfamily.org

Are you National Military Family Association?
This page was written about you, not by you. We built it because the people we serve were already looking for you and deserved a straight answer about what you do. If anything here is wrong, out of date, or puts it badly, we would rather hear it from you than leave it up.
Claiming it gives you an account here and a route to request changes — corrections, new programs, updated events. Those requests are handled by Meridian Tech, our partner, under their subscription service. You are not editing this page yourself, and we would rather say that plainly now than have you find out after you sign up.
“Claim this page” opens a checkout on milconnect.com, where you set up your organization's account. Being listed here is free, and staying listed is free. Meridian Tech — the company that also builds and runs MILCONNECT.AI — provides the account and the update service, and the AI Workspace is their paid product. We are telling you about a commercial relationship before you act on it rather than after, because you are a nonprofit being asked to spend money and you deserve to see the whole shape of it first. If anything on this page is simply wrong, email us and we will fix it for free; that never requires a subscription.
This page is maintained by MILCONNECT.AI and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or authored by National Military Family Association. It is a directory entry compiled from community recommendations. We do not rate, rank or endorse anything in this directory, and being listed here is not a recommendation — clinical or otherwise. We are not a medical provider and cannot tell you whether a program is right for you. Check eligibility, cost and current status with the organization directly before you rely on it.
