Army Will Grow Military Benefits Support for Family

Tuesday, May 13, 2008

Next year Army families can expect more services, support and military benefits because of a $700 million increase in the 2009 Army Budget. This amounts to a doubling of the Army's 2008 family support services and will translate into more staff at family readiness groups, better child care and more military spouse education opportunities.

The 2009 portion of the Army's family support budget will be set at $1.4 billion. Much of the Army's initiatives are centered on helping military spouses with more child care resources so they can pursue either employment or career education. One way that military spouses can prepare for career is through accredited military education options such as training at a 100% online vocational school.

Online schools have been creating educational opportunities to aid the military family, including scholarships for military spouses and scholarships for military dependents. The advantage of training online is that military spouses can maintain their daily commitments to their family and the community, while still preparing for a career like medical transcription, medical coding or real estate sales.

Allied Schools is an example of an online school that offers both scholarships for military wives as well as scholarships for military children. When service members enroll at Allied using Tuition Assistance (TA) and then completes one module/course, their spouse or dependent enrolls at no charge under Allied's Military Family Scholarship Program.
