Learn about the role of family centers in emergency family assistance, what family support looks like during a disaster, and what support and resources are available to the military community. You’ll also learn how services prepare to support disasters, how personnel, service members and their families can set themselves up for success with geographically specific preparedness, and about real-world examples of people being supported through the Emergency Family Assistance Center.

Host Bruce Moody speaks with Donna Huffman, Air Force Personnel Center’s Airman and Family Readiness Operations division chief.
