The Comfort Crew has created
four specialized Comfort Kits to support military
children and their families through deployment,
reintegration, injury, and loss. The Comfort Kit
components are designed for children ages 6-12 to help
them understand, manage, and express their feelings, let
them know they aren't alone, and increase communication
for the whole family. They consist of core components
like the writing journal, family guidebook, access to a
topic-specific animated movie, and a plush animal for
comfort and companionship. Each Comfort Kit has
additional items specific to that topic.
Comfort Kits are provided free to military families who
request them at http://www.comfortcrew.org/resources
and sent directly to their homes. When funding permits,
we also meet requests for bulk Comfort Kit orders from
military-connected resource professionals. At this time,
we have exceeded our bulk order limit and are pausing
the request form until we can catch up. Thanks for your
patience as we work to identify additional funding so we
can meet as many requests as possible.
In the meantime, we invite you to create a free Comfort Crew Academy
account, our NEW learning and resiliency platform. We
have transitioned our animated movies from the DVD in
the Comfort Kit to the Comfort Crew Academy.
