Emergency Assistance Overview

If you need emergency assistance, you can expect to get help from your installation, your branch of service resources. There are programs to support you in a variety of situations, including victim assistance, emergencies en route and service-specific relief societies. Below, you’ll find types of assistance, contact information, and detailed procedures and guidance to help you through any tough circumstances that you or your family may face.

Army Emergency Relief

Army Emergency Relief can provide financial assistance to meet unforeseen required travel and related maintenance expenses, such as transportation, lodging or food, when applicable due to extraordinary costs involved with a PCS. Army Emergency Relief provides financial assistance to eligible Soldiers and their dependents. They can help with emergency financial needs for food, rent, utilities, emergency transportation and vehicle repair, funeral expenses, medical/dental expenses and personal needs when pay is delayed or stolen.

Assistance is given in the form of an interest free loan, grant, or part loan and part grant. To receive assistance, first see your unit commander and then contact the AER office for an appointment. They also provide undergraduate level educational scholarships (based primarily on financial need) to dependent children of active-duty, retired or deceased Soldiers.

Contact AER at 520-533-2330.

Important Documents

Before you leave, make sure you have all important papers with you - not packed with your household goods. Make sure you have important numbers such as your command duty office and your sponsor. Your sponsor can be invaluable in case of an emergency while in transit.
