The habits that make a recruit ready, like movement, sleep and nutrition, are the same habits that keep a community healthy. And the people who serve shape the places they live long after they take off the uniform.

The FORCE-Friendly Score rates how well each state supports military and veteran families, past, present and future. It weighs what the military brings to a community against what the community gives back.
Prototype: 5 of the 12 indicators are live today, covering 743 DoD sites and full health panels for 139 air base counties.
Fewer Americans than ever have a direct tie to someone who serves. MyHealthyFORCE is a place to close that gap: to understand what service asks of people, to appreciate the families who carry it, and to build the kind of health that makes every community stronger and readier.
We built this challenge to say thank you to the people who serve and the families who serve alongside them, and to invite everyone else to share a little of their discipline.
Start with what you know. Test what you can do. Train for 30 days. Then tell us, and the people who inspired you, how far you came.
