TOLL FREE INFORMATION UPDATE LINE: 1-800-491-3770
The Family Readiness Officer is an integral part of the Command's official Family Readiness Program and is the primary communication link between the Commanding Officer and the families of our Marines and Sailors. The Family Readiness Officer will provide information, referral, and support to the Marine & Sailor's spouses and their families. The active involvement of a spouse or extended family member is still critical to the success of the program. The program ensures that families of military members are equipped with accurate information and resources necessary to make the best decisions for their family. Volunteers are required to complete a standardized training course and adhere to strict rules of confidentiality. The Family Readiness program supports all Marines and Sailors in the unit whether they are single or married.
The Family Readiness Officer will:
- notify, interact, and provide honest, straight-forward information for our families to the fullest extent that force protection and classification will allow.
- standardize family readiness support for both active duty, reserves and individual augments.
- establish communication with individual augment families and incorporate those families into family readiness information sharing and support programs.
"Taking care of our own" begins with Family Readiness.
