Emerging adulthood reflects the evolving cultural expectations surrounding adulthood and the dynamic process of personal transformation during...

One common approach is problem-focused coping, which aims to change or eliminate the source of stress rather than merely addressing its consequences. This method involves taking direct action to resolve the issue causing stress.

    Area of Science:

    • Sociology
    • Public Health
    • Veterans Affairs

    Background:

    • The veteran population is diversifying, with post-September 11, 2001 (post-9/11) veterans being more diverse in gender and race/ethnicity compared to previous cohorts.
    • Post-9/11 veterans are more likely to be single parents, often without partner support, highlighting a growing need for targeted assistance.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To comprehensively assess the financial, physical, and mental health status of veteran single parents.
    • To investigate disparities in health and financial well-being among veteran single parents based on race, ethnicity, and gender.
    • To develop evidence-based policy and program recommendations to support this demographic.

    Main Methods:

    • Cross-sectional study design.
    • Analysis of demographic, financial, physical health, and mental health data.
    • Comparative analysis across racial, ethnic, and gender groups.

    Main Results:

    • Detailed findings on the financial, physical, and mental health of veteran single parents.
    • Identification of specific challenges and disparities faced by different subgroups (e.g., by race, ethnicity, gender).
    • Data-driven insights into the unique needs of this population.

    Conclusions:

    • Veteran single parents, particularly those from diverse backgrounds, require tailored support systems.
    • Policy and program interventions should address financial stability, physical health, and mental well-being.
    • Addressing disparities is crucial for equitable support of all veteran single parents and their children.
