Army National Guard expands free childcare program

The Army National Guard is expanding a free childcare program for soldiers who have to report for weekend drills. The pilot program started in 20 states and will be available in all 50 states, three territories and Washington, D.C., by the end of the year. The program allows eligible Guard members to arrange childcare near their homes or drill locations at no cost. Army officials say reliable childcare can ease stress for military families, remove a potential obstacle to attending drills and help improve retention.
