Military Families Speak Out is a grassroots nonprofit based in Boston, Massachusetts, formed in 2002 by two families. The organization mobilizes relatives and loved ones of military personnel who oppose the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, connecting with a broad network of military families across the United States and internationally. It identifies as a civic and social organization focused on influencing public discourse and policy related to military engagements, seeking to support those opposed to ongoing conflicts and to advocate for the safe return and care of service members. Its work centers on the experiences and concerns of military families, highlighting issues such as deployment risks, injuries, PTSD, and the welfare of veterans, with a membership that has grown to include thousands of families. The group operates with a small internal staff and relies on a volunteer and member-driven model to maintain outreach and coordination.
