<p>
Blue Star Families is the largest nonprofit dedicated to making military life better for families. Each year, we support over 1.5 million military- and veteran-connected family members through a national network of 300,000+ members and local chapters in communities across the country.</p>
<p>
Our mission is simple and bold: We make military life awesome for families.</p>
<p>
We listen, share, partner, and act to deliver evidence-based, data-driven solutions that work for real people. We're a lifestyle organization, a friend and neighbor, and a trusted partner. Our approach is collaborative, human-centered, and designed with the whole family in mind.</p>
<p>
A Blue Star Family is one with an immediate family member &mdash; a spouse, parent, or child &mdash; actively serving in the U.S. Armed Forces, including the Guard and Reserves. These families face unique challenges: frequent relocations, deployments, career disruption, and isolation. We respond with research-informed programs that create connection, build resilience, and foster a true sense of belonging.</p>
<p>
We serve with urgency but build trust over time &mdash; because change happens at the speed of trust. Whether we're driving spouse employment, supporting caregivers, or helping communities welcome military families, we strive for upstream solutions.</p>
<p>
Who We're Looking For:</p>
<ul>
<li>Bold thinkers. Fast movers. Smart collaborators. People who want to build, lead, and drive measurable change &mdash; and who care deeply about making an impact that matters.</li>

<p>
The Government Affairs Associate Director will manage and implement Blue Star Families' (BSF) advocacy efforts with Congress and the Administration, building coalitions and collaborating with other VSOs, MSOs and other partners.</p>
<p>
The work includes monitoring legislation and media developments, developing advocacy strategies, preparing materials (testimony, issue briefs), representing the organization at public events, and leveraging strong legislative/communication skills to advance mission-critical support.
