This fund, which may be authorized for other emergency as well, are disbursed on the basis
of need. Budget counseling is also available to the service member and family, as are
referrals to specialized sources of help.
These Red Cross services, and more, are available to service members and their families 24
hours a day, 365 days a year. Also ask about assistance when disaster strikes or try some of
the many health, safety, and life-style courses available to help
you prevent, prepare for, and cope with emergency. |
