DEPLOYMENT SUPPORT AND INFORMATION:
Military deployments are a big adjustment time for many military families. Roles change, workloads increase for all parties and often times anxiety rises. Being proactive toward the deployment process is the best way to approach these issues. By taking charge of the circumstance it ensures you and your family's interests are served to the best extent possible. Taking the time to plan and prepare will not make a deployment any shorter, but it will help alleviate some of the stressors and anxiety that can be associated with deployment. The Airman & Family Readiness Program will partner with you by providing information, materials, expertise, and local resources.
