Information and Referral<br />

An A&FRC consultant can assist you with coordination<br />

of local activities and provide a data bank of referable<br />

agencies.<br />

Family Life Center<br />

There is a strong correlation between a military member's<br />

ability to accomplish the mission successfully and the<br />

quality of his or her family experience. Because of this,<br />

A&FRC offers activities to promote a healthy family life.<br />

We also have informational books and printed<br />

material on a variety of topics regarding family life issues.<br />

The Transition Assistance Program<br />

The Transition Assistance Program includes an extensive<br />

array of services and benefits designed to equip service<br />

members with the basic job-hunting skills, tools and selfconfidence<br />

necessary to secure successful employment<br />

in the civilian sector. The program consists of two major<br />

components: the mandatory pre-separation benefits brief<br />

and the three-day TAP workshop.<br />

Pre-separation Counseling<br />

This is congressionally mandated for all separating<br />

or retiring military members. All members separating<br />

with more than 180 days of continuous active-duty<br />

service must receive a DD Form 2648, Pre-separation<br />

Counseling, before participation in any other transition<br />

activities. Pre-separation classes cover employment;<br />

relocation; education and training assistance; health<br />

and life insurance; finances; reserve/guard affiliation;<br />

veterans’ benefits; effects of career change; and<br />

assistance in developing an individual transition plan to<br />

meet your education, training, and/or employment<br />

objectives. Spouses are strongly encouraged to attend.<br />

employment. Classes and information available include<br />

employment focus, resume writing classes and career<br />

information concerning federal employment. A&FRC<br />

consultants offer the AF military member and family<br />

members the advantage of numerous job-hunting skills<br />

such as interviewing, resume writing and points of<br />

contact. For more information please contact the A&FRC<br />
