She explains the top findings and breaks down the most important issues facing active service members and their loved ones. Coming in at the top of the list is the concern about spending too much time away from home. The organization aims to help military families connect and integrate with their civilian neighbors. Roth-Douquet speaks to why this is so important to spouses moving multiple times a year. The CEO and co-founder has gone through nine moves and four deployments over the past 18 years.
