About our Local Chapters
We are always happy to launch new local chapters. Our goal for local chapters is a gathering of mamas who connect over loving someone who serves or served, but become friends and even family by choice.
Our local chapter leaders are trained through our Leadership Academy, have been members for at least six months and volunteer their time.
Membership in local chapters is free. Always has been. Always will be.
