The Joining Forces initiative aims to educate, challenge and spark action from sectors of society to ensure military families have the support they have earned. To help support our military families with young children, Sesame Street launched Talk, Listen, Connect in 2006.  With the help of Elmo and his furry and friendly friends, Sesame Street has provided resources and support to military families with  multi-media outreach kits, a social media website, Emmy nominated primetime tv specials, a traveling worldwide tour with the USO, and these newest PSA's.
