MFSO Oregon is a chapter of Military Families Speak Out, a national organization of people who have relatives or loved ones in the military and are opposed to the continued occupation of Iraq.
MFSO was formed in November of 2002 and has contacts with military families throughout the United States, and in countries around the world. National membership currently includes over 2,000 military families, with new families joining daily.

MFSO Oregon started as it’s own organization in November 2004 as it was evident the war and occupation was continuing with no exit strategy and that Oregon families needed support and a way to speak out against the war in a safe and protected environment.
MFSO Goals:

• Provide support to families of soldiers.
• Speak out against the war and ensure the voices of families are heard.
• Educate the public on the impacts of war on soldiers and families.
• Engage in advocacy in the community and with elected officials for an exit strategy and proper care for troops returning from the occupation in Iraq.
