USAA and Sesame Workshop have partnered to support military and veteran families. Our partnership has included a campaign to help reach active-duty service members and their families with our Sesame Street for Military Families content.
Sesame Street for Military Families: Caregiving offers resources to families with young children who are providing care to a wounded or injured veteran or service member through strategies of Comfort and Strength, Sharing and Talking, and Routines.
Our latest joint efforts provide resources to military families on the topics of COVID-19 and Racial Justice. Caring for Each Other addresses the impact of COVID-19 on military families, offering emotional support for the unique challenges they are facing because of the pandemic. Coming Together content for military families helps children understand and appreciate their own identities and those of others and provides the tools to have open conversations with young children to help them become upstanders against racism.
