Any issue that affects the readiness and well-being of our Service Members, and/or their families. Issues may be installation specific or "larger military" issues. The process starts at the installation, where volunteers participate in an MFAP conference. These work group participants are assigned to working groups to review issues, suggestions and concerns submitted for consideration by members of the community. These working groups address specific areas of concern, including medical and dental, benefits and entitlements, family support, force support and many more. Work group participants include military members from all Joint Base service components, National Guardsmen and Reservists, military retirees, family members and Department of the Defense civilian employees.
Work group participants review and prioritize issues which are presented to the Installation leadership on the last day of the conference. Some issues will be resolved at the local level, and some will be forwarded to higher level Air Force "Caring for People" or Army "Army Family Action Plan" symposiums. Issues will be worked at this level until resolved or deemed unattainable. Through this process there have been more than 117 legislative changes and 178 new or improved programs and services.
If you would like to be a workgroup participant, please submit a Workgroup Participant Application Form.
