Armed Forces Emergency Services provides emergency related services to members of the U.S. Armed Forces stationed around the world, veterans, and their families.
Primary assistance comes in the form of emergency communications during times of family crisis.
Other assistance includes counseling and referral services, health and welfare inquiries, and emergency loans during family crisis. All services are provided at no charge to the service member or their family. No matter how strong the family ties, moves and separations often put a strain on relationships. They may lead to problems managing a home or children, making ends meet on a limited income, or adjusting to new communities, often without the help of family or friends. The Red Cross can help you with immediate personal and family problems.
