Preparing to Deploy
Whether an experienced deplorer or a first-timer, preparation is necessary to ensure service members and their families are prepared for deployments. Military and Family Support Center assist service members and their families in understanding and coping with the demands associated with military lifestyle, especially with increased frequency of deployments with the goal of improving readiness. The goal of deployment programs is to ensure the readiness and safety of each military member and to improve the quality of life of each family member, regardless of the length of their career or experiences thus far.
Family Care Plan Overview
Whether it's a deployment or training, sometimes your military career obligates you to leave your family and loved ones for an extended period of time. While being away from home is never easy, creating a family care plan can give you some peace of mind while you’re gone. A family care plan is designed to guide caregivers and provide important details about child care, school, medical care and family activities. While a family care plan can’t ensure everything will go perfectly while you’re away, it could provide your caretaker all the right information to make prudent decisions in your absence and run the household in a responsible manner.
