In its ongoing project to assist military families and help children adjust to the changes wartime military deployments bring, the Children's Television Workshop will be airing a Sesame Street prime-time special called "Coming Home." April has been declared the month of the military child and the show will air April 1 (check your local listings for times).
Sesame Street's production company, the Children's Television Workshop has already aired an earlier special about parents leaving for deployments abroad. In this special, the focus is on returning parents. The show will cover the special concerns of families with a returning military member who has been injured--either visibly or invisibly--and the best ways to adjust to a "new normal."
Sesame Street's military family initiative, Talk, Listen, Connect: Deployments, Homecomings, Changes, also offers an extensive web resource for military families with young children.
