The Personal and Family Readiness program ensures
active duty members, and those with families,
are prepared to deploy in support of the Air
Force mission. It is critical that personal
issues and families are taken care of while
the member is deployed. Personal and Family
Readiness services include:
Key Spouse
- Each organization has a volunteer who has
stepped up to be their Key Spouse. Key Spouses
are integral parts of the Air Force family.
Unit Commander's rely on their Key Spouses to
assist in taking care of the unit's family members.
Spouse it up
- Spouse It Up is an event that allows spouses
and children to get out of the house, meet other
spouses and children, and enjoy a meal together.
Spouse it Up normally begins at 10:30 AM and
the location will depend on the theme (Bowling,
Bingo in the Community Center, BBQ in Area D,
etc.).
Reintegration
- Reintegration following a deployment or remote
tour involves becoming reacquainted with the
local unit, base, and for those married, their
family. We are here to assist this important
process.
Morale Calls (MORALE
MINDER)
- Morale minder calls are made available for
deployed members to ensure they can make contact
with family and/or key members back at Aviano
AB (see the details under Resources).
Car Care Because
We Care (sponsored by the Air Force Aid
Society)
- Spouses of deployed active duty Air Force
members are authorized a free oil change and
safety check on their primary vehicle. Members
must be deployed for over 30 days and there
is a limit of one service per deployment with
a max of 2 per year.
DEPLOYED SPOUSES DINNER
- Deployed Spouses Dinnner is an event that
allows spouses and children to get out of the
house, meet other spouses and children, and
enjoy a meal together at one of the dinning
halls on base at no cost.
Phone Home(sponsored
by the Air Force Aid Society)
- Air Force members that are deployed are entitled to
a phone card which enables them to call home
to their friends and/or family. Once members arrive at their deployed location, they should contact their First Sergeant for the issue of the phone card. |
