Soldier On supports veterans and their families through programs that strengthen wellbeing, connection and resilience. We’re proud to sponsor the Soldier On Parenting & Family Wellbeing Program and to stand alongside the community it supports.
Soldier On is delivering a range of evidence based family programs designed to help strengthen connection with your children across all stages of life. These group programs also offer an opportunity to hear from other veteran families about how they navigate the challenges of raising children and staying connected as a family unit.
All programs are delivered Australia wide via telehealth, making them accessible no matter where you live.
The programs include:
- Tuning into Kids
- Tuning into Teens
- Circle of Security
- Lighthouse

Why Defence Health
Health cover designed for the Defence community
For more than 70 years, we’ve focused on providing health cover that delivers value, certainty and support for the Defence community, not shareholders.
When you choose Defence Health, you’ll benefit from:
- Hospital and Extras options to suit singles, couples and families
- A not-for-profit fund focused on long-term value
- Support from a team that understands Defence and veteran life
- Clear information, plain English and no hard sell
At Defence Health, we’re a not-for-profit health fund created for the Defence community, including serving members, veterans and their families.
More for families
ADF families and the Defence community are at the heart of everything we do:
- There’s more for families including immediate cover for newborns or adopted children when you add them to your policy within 60 days of birth or adoption.
- There's no excess for kids if they go to hospital.
- And on most extras cover, there's a benefit for a no-gap custom-fitted mouthguard each year to protect young teeth. Everyone in the family has their own annual limits and there’s no lifetime limit on orthodontic benefits
- Kids are covered until age 21, or 31 if single and studying fulltime.
- Keep 21 to 30 year-old non-students covered on a Family+ policy. It’s the simple and affordable option for families with young adult kids
Whether you’re reviewing your current cover or exploring private health insurance for the first time, we’re here to help you understand your options.
