The Military Family Readiness Academy, hosted by OneOp, will focus on Building Strong Communities for Military Family Readiness through a no-cost, four-week virtual professional development series in August. This year’s Academy highlights how communities can better support military families when providers work together, share resources, strengthen local systems, and build lasting partnerships.
The Academy runs each Wednesday in August at 10:00 a.m., beginning August 5. Sessions include:
All sessions are available live and on-demand with continuing education credits across multiple disciplines. Related Practicing Connection podcast episodes will also be released each Thursday following the live webinars.
The Academy is designed for a broad professional audience, including Extension professionals, community development practitioners, state and local leaders, nonprofits, military family service providers, and community organizations. Together, participants will explore strategies to build partnerships, strengthen local systems, and improve support for military families across communities.
OneOp is a grant partially housed in the Department of Special Education, with professors Micki Ostrosky and Amy Santos serving as Principal Investigators. OneOp collaborates with the War Department and the US Department of Agriculture to provide free, open-access learning opportunities across a full spectrum of family service subject areas.
