The Army Family Action Plan (AFAP) is a program that allows army families to bring any concerns or problems to the attention of command. It meets every quarter at each base and all families are encouraged to participate. People bring different concerns from who gets the new houses, and a need for better lighting in the parking lots, to concerns about insufficient insurance and retirement benefits to these meetings.
The concerns are then sorted by priority and what level they can be addressed at – local, national, worldwide. Every six months, there is a “mid-level” conference where the national and worldwide concerns are addressed and then passed on to the appropriate departments.
Jeff is now an AFAP facilitator. He facilitated the local meeting in February in Monterey. He was invited by the Commander to represent the Presidio in at the Mid-Level Conference in April, in Hampton, Virginia. Go Jeff!
