*Responses per Respondent:*                     1.                

*Annual Responses:*                     20,000.                

*Average Burden per Response:*                     30 minutes.                

*Frequency:*                     On occasion.                

This form is used by EFMP Family Support staff in collaboration with families who request assistance in navigating resources and systems of support. The DD Form X768 will be standardized across the four Services with the goal of facilitating a consistent Family Support experience for all military families. Form respondents include EFMP Family Support staff who complete the form in conjunction with families who are needing support services. The FNA will be stored and maintained internally at the Family Support Office. A family may request a copy of the form.
