MILITARY FAMILY
Research Interest Group (FIG)

Mission

The TSNRP FIG collaborates with civilian teams, academic affiliations, and military research partners to generate new knowledge within nursing and healthcare to improve the quality of life for military families; form TriService, multidisciplinary research teams to work on topics of common interest; and develop innovative interventions and policies that will be pertinent to not only active duty members, but also to family members.

​

Vision

Through research and Evidence-Based Practice, the FIG will lead the advancement of creative, innovative, and operationally-relevant nursing care for soldiers and their families. The FIG will transition scientific findings to the stakeholders within the Military Health System creating an environment with a focus on providing the down range support for stakeholders that support members of the military community throughout the world. In 2025, the FIG published Building Health Through Military Family Readiness and Community Partnerships Volume 190, Issue Supplement_3, November/December 2025. The articles within highlight the powerful ways military families support their service members and underscore the vital role these families play in sustaining the military’s strength and resilience.
