USO and the Trevor Romain Foundation celebrate launch of new kit supporting military children during deployment.

Austin, Texas — The Trevor Romain Foundation, in collaboration with the USO, will commemorate the launch of special deployment kits designed to support families with children who have a family member deployed with the U.S. Military on Tuesday, March 30, 2010, at The United States Navy Memorial in Washington DC.

Mr. Arthur J. Myers, Principal Director for Deputy Under Secretary of Defense for Military Community and Family Policy, Sloan Gibson, President and CEO of the USO, and Mr. Trevor Romain, co-founder and president of the Trevor Romain Foundation, are all confirmed speakers at the event. The world premiere of the DVD, With You All the Way! Dealing With Deployment, will also be shown, with a Q&A session by Mr. Romain to follow. Every child in attendance at the event will receive a deployment kit as a gift from the USO.

Designed to address the special needs of children who have a deployed family member, the deployment kits will be made available through Military OneSource, an outreach service provided to all military families. The kit features kid-friendly postcards that can be mailed to a deployed enlisted person, an interactive journal with activities and writing prompts, a set of keepsake dog-tags, a stuffed animal named Cuzzie™, and the DVD, With You All the Way! Dealing With Deployment - an animated movie that provides children with information and advice during a family member's predeployment, deployment, and reintegration.
