RMKS/1. This NAVADMIN announces the plan to implement Family Readiness education into the officer and enlisted training continuums.
2. Family Readiness is a critical component of mission readiness.
Educated, networked, resilient families positively impact everything from our Sailors' ability to focus on the mission, to quality of life and retention. It is essential that each of our Sailors is indoctrinated and continuously educated throughout their careers on the support services available to them and their families and how to utilize those services. By the end of this fiscal year, we will simultaneously integrate Family Readiness education into all phases of our continuum of training spanning from the Delayed Entry Program (DEP) to senior leadership training.
3. The training program will provide scoped and tailored Family Readiness education appropriate to career milestones that will continuously build and refresh our Sailors' knowledge base as they navigate through their careers and assume positions of greater leadership and responsibility. As we work to integrate Family Readiness into the training continuum, we will continue to use a variety of venues and channels to communicate essential family support information to our Sailors and their families.
