The Army is committed to standardizing Family programs and services. Standardizing programs and services is key to the AFC which honors the sacrifices made by Soldiers and Military Families.
Some highlights include:
-- Standardized Army Community service (ACS) staffing and programs at the garrisons and created 477 ACS staff positions to meet operational and staffing shortfalls.
-- Increased staff for the New Parent Support Home Visit Program to reach high risk Families. The program operates in 33 U.S. and 29 overseas garrisons.
-- Supported 249 Army National Guard Family Assistance centers which provide Soldiers and their Families support services, regardless of their geographic position.
-- Conducted more than 100,000 religious services around the world, including at home stations and on the battlefield. Ensured better access to religious support at the battalion level by adding 21 chaplains and chaplain assistants.
“Army Community Support Coordinators play a special role in providing standardized programs and services by focusing on the needs of geographically dispersed Soldiers and Families,” said with Karen Conrad of the Family and Morale, Welfare and Recreation Command. “We now have 61 CSCs at work serving Soldiers and Families, with more to come.”
