The Family Advocacy Program supports readiness, builds healthy families and sustains strong communities by providing comprehensive approaches to prevention, identification and intervention of child and spouse abuse in military families.

Family Advocacy Program (FAP) Policy:

The Department of Army policy is to prevent spouse and child abuse, to protect those who are victims of abuse, to treat those affected by abuse and to ensure that personnel are professionally trained to intervene in abuse cases.

The FAP promotes public awareness within the military community and coordinates professional intervention at all levels within the civilian and military communities, including law enforcement, social services, health services and legal services.

Education:

The Family Advocacy Program provides core programs in prevention and education in the following areas:

• Community Education
• Commander Education
• Troop Education
• Education for Professionals
• Parent Education and Support
• Safety Education
• Spouse Abuse Prevention
• Victim Advocacy Services
• Family Life Education

The Family Advocacy Program educators provide briefings and trainings on identification, reporting and prevention of spouse and child abuse.

The Family Readiness Group (FRG) is a command-sponsored organization of Family Members, volunteers and Soldiers.

Together they provide mutual support and assistance creating a network of communication between Family Members, the Chain of Command and community resources.

Are you looking for a way to give back to your community? Army Community Service is looking for individuals who are interested in taking on such a task. FRGs help create a climate of mutual support within the unit and community. FRGs play an integral part in the Family and Soldier Readiness System (FSRS).

All Army Sports provides athletically skilled Soldier athletes the opportunity to excel at the highest levels while competing for our Army and our country. Soldier/athletes train and compete in individual and team sports.

The best may find themselves competing against Air Force, Marine and Navy athletes on a national level in Armed Forces championships. The best military athletes may even advance to compete on an international field of play against athletes from around the world.

All Army Sports also contributes to the Soldier/athlete's readiness and overall well-being. When finished with competition, Soldiers return to their unit in better physical condition, along with a new appreciation of team building and enhanced leadership skills. Their unique perspective as a Soldier/athlete and first hand-experience gained in competing on the international stage makes them better athletes, but more importantly, better Soldiers. The espirit de corps and camaraderie developed on the field of play stays with Soldier/athletes long after they return to their unit, strengthening the bond between them and their fellow Soldiers.

To apply or learn more about All Army Sports, visit the  All Army Sports website or call the Varsity Sports Office.
