Deployment can be a challenging phase of the military lifecycle, but it’s important to know that you don’t have to go through it alone. The military provides a variety of resources and support programs — ranging from educational briefings to morale calls — for your loved ones, children and service members to ease the stress of deployment. Military members may be assigned to a specific installation but support may come from local communities, Yellow Ribbon events or the installation itself.
The Family Readiness Program at the Military and Family Readiness Center provides essential information and services designed to minimize the stress associated with mission-related separations.
There are many programs available to families who experience temporary duty assignments of 30 or more days, deployments and remote tours. These programs will be briefed to each service member when they attend their A&FRC in- or out-processing briefings.
We look forward to serving you and your family. The M&FRC can be reached at 228-376-8728 or DSN 312-591-8728.
