K-12 School Information

Ombudsmen/Key Spouses are appointed by each command to serve as a resource for family members, particularly during deployment. They help facilitate the flow of information between the command and the family. Family Readiness Groups (FRGs) are organized within commands to be a support team for the spouses, children and other designated individuals (including fiancées and/or parents). FRG’s are command-sponsored and are subject to the installation commander’s approval and local guidance. MFSC conducts training sessions for Ombudsman/Key Spouses and FRG leaders, as well as Command Support Team members, and helps facilitate the monthly Ombudsman/Key Spouses meetings.
