The AFF Families Journal


About the Journal

The Journal is delivered free four times a year to Army families worldwide, and is the only magazine of its kind - written by Army families for anyone with an interest in Army family life. It is the voice of the Army Families Federation, a vital channel of communication, a source of information, and a platform for voicing the concerns and interests of Army families. The aim of the Journal is to inform, entertain and communicate to all Army families and the parents and extended family members of soldiers.

The Journal is published quarterly for the AFF by TylerBale Communications, and has a print run of 64,000. The magazine was redesigned in 2011 and continues to evolve a positive, colourful and information-packed identity. The Journal's editorial independence ensures its credibility.

'Just knowing what's going on, and what you can find out for yourself about all kinds of issues is great'
