Julie French
Spouse Program
Julie French serves as the Spouse Program Manager at the COMMIT Foundation. With two decades of personal experience as a military spouse, Julie intimately understands the challenges facing military families, especially as families leave military service. In her role, Julie is instrumental in creating tailored assistance programs that address the unique needs of military spouses. Recognizing their pivotal role in veterans' well-being and success, she ensures they receive the necessary resources and guidance for a smooth transition from military to civilian life. She orchestrates spouse-focused workshops, fosters mentorship opportunities, and creates a community for military spouses during this challenging time. Julie returned home to Helena, MT after her husband retired from the Navy. She enjoys reading, playing and teaching piano, and spending quality time with her husband, Michael, and their seven children. Thanks!

Sommer Moon
Executive Assistant
As a proud Air Force spouse of 22 years, Sommer brings a deep understanding of military life, family resilience, and the power of community to her role at The COMMIT Foundation. After dedicating many years to raising her family and supporting her husband’s active-duty career, she re-entered the workforce with a strong passion for meaningful service and behind-the-scenes impact. Community has always been at the heart of Sommer’s journey—building it, nurturing it, and showing up for it. Whether in the military world or her local circles, she believes community is not just something we find, but something we create and carry with us. In her role as Executive Assistant, she supports the COMMIT team with thoughtful coordination, organization, and care—ensuring that every detail contributes to a mission that uplifts veterans and their families through life’s transitions. Raised in Spokane, Washington, Sommer is grateful to be stationed there today with her husband and their three children. A lifelong book lover who finds her peace in the mountains, she values connection, quiet strength, and the transformative power of service—principles that align closely with COMMIT’s mission.
