What's New?
The Millennium Cohort 2007-2008 survey cycle is closing very soon! Although we are near the end of the 2007-2008 cycle, we would like to update you on the latest news surrounding the Millennium Cohort Study.
Over 100,000 participants, including follow-up and newly invited members, have completed their survey. The cycle will end in November 2008, so if you have not yet submitted your responses, please do so now by going to our secure survey!
Although approximately 20% of the Cohort has separated from the military, it is important that all members (active duty, reserves, and retired participants) continue to fill out their survey every three years. In fact, your continued voluntary participation is very important and capturing your experiences is crucial to determining long-term health outcomes.
