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.

Important Documents

No matter how well you've planned, emergencies do happen. What should you do in case of an emergency while you're traveling? First, make sure you have all your important papers with you like a copy of orders, phone book, insurance information and more. Be careful not to pack them in your household or hold baggage. Numbers for your commander, orderly room and your sponsor can be invaluable in case of an emergency while in transit.
