11 WIESBADEN, Germany – More than a dozen delegates convened through an online meeting platform Dec. 16, 17 and 18 to discuss issues submitted by community members as part of the 37th Army Family Action Plan conference.
AFAP is a grassroots program that was created by Army spouses with the intent of bringing quality-of-life issues to leadership for action. This year’s local conference was conducted virtually for the first time.
Some success stories that have originated as AFAP issues include the Army Wellness Center, Voluntary Leave Bank Program, free online tutoring for military families and the federal hiring process for wounded warriors.
Delegates chosen to participate in the conference represent a cross-section of demographics from the installation to include Soldiers, spouses and civilians. At the conference the delegates are assigned to work groups and given issues to prioritize. Topics vary but include quality of life issues and entitlements. Requests t
