    As we celebrate the winter holidays, we at Blue Star Families are reflecting on the strength of our nation’s military and veteran families. This time of year can bring joy — but it can also bring challenges, especially when loved ones are apart, traditions look different, or support systems feel far away. Our CEO, Kathy Roth-Douquet, shares what it means to be a military family during the holidays and why community support matters now more than ever. Her message is a reminder that behind every uniform is a family navigating unique pressures — and they deserve our care and connection. You can be part of that support. 👉 Learn how to get involved at BlueStarFam.org. From all of us at Blue Star Families, we’re grateful for you — and we wish you a warm and peaceful holiday season.
