    Needs and Uses: SOS is an Army-wide program that provides dedicated 
and comprehensive support services to all family members of soldiers 
who die while on active duty, including Regular Army, United States 
Army National Guard and Reserves patrons. SOS Support Coordinators 
serve as the main Survivor advocate. They facilitate support groups, 
provide life skills education, assist survivors in managing applicable 
life-long benefit transition milestones, connect survivors with 
counseling resources, and represent the command in contacts with 
community organizations. SOS Financial Counselors help survivors by 
assisting with budget counseling, debt management, education, and 
higher education needs. SOS staff members are required to make periodic 
communication with Survivors--at a minimum of one contact annually--to 
conduct well-being checks and milestone management reviews or determine 
the level of support Survivors desire. Information gathered in these 
meetings is input into the SOS application collection instrument by SOS 
staff members. No customers have access to the collection instrument. 
SOS staff members collect the information from the survivors and 
document the information as a direct contact within the SOS application 
case notes. The successful result of the information collection is an 
organized and up-to-date database of essential information on survivors 
that allows SOS to better provide the support they deserve.
    Affected Public: Individuals or households.
    Frequency: On occasion.
    Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary.
    OMB Desk Officer: Ms. Jasmeet Seehra.
