Coming Home: Military Families Cope with Change

Mar 30 2009

The folks at Sesame Street are at it again.  The same folks who brought you the Talk, Listen, Connect initiative and last year’s When Parents are Deployed special with Cuba Gooding, Jr., have a new project on the horizon.  Entitled Coming Home: Military Families Cope with Change, this latest production takes on the issue of families welcoming home injured service members.

From the press release:

” Featuring Queen Latifah, John Mayer and Elmo, this half-hour HD program tells stories of service members who return home with injuries, visible and invisible, and explores the heroic struggles their families face in discovering a new way of finding a ‘new normal’.  The special, which premieres in conjunction with April as the Month of the Military Child, salutes the extraordinary courage and strength of these military families and offers the general public a powerful glimpse into what they often must endure.”

The special will premiere on PBS April 1st at 8pm ET/PT (check your local listings).
