The Millennium Cohort Program is based at the Naval Health Research Center (NHRC) in San Diego, CA. NHRC is one of eight laboratories affiliated with the Naval Medical Research Center (NMRC) in Silver Spring, Maryland, within the U.S. Navy Bureau of Medicine and Surgery. NHRC supports military mission readiness through research and development, providing high-value, high-impact solutions to the health and readiness challenges faced by our military population on the battlefield, at sea, on foreign shores, and at home.

The Millennium Cohort Family Study is being conducted with support from The Defense Health Program, within the Defense Health Agency (DHA). The Department of Defense (DoD) established the DHA in 2013 as part of a larger effort to reorganize its health care programs and services. The Family Study also receives additional support from the DoD Office of Military Community and Family Policy (MC&FP) and the Department of Veterans Affairs.
