It's a good place to start, whether it is just trying to get acquainted with the Army way of life or assistance with personal problems. It provides commanders, soldiers, and families with information regarding military and civilian community resources. It links soldiers and families with available and appropriate resources. ACS is always looking for volunteers to join their staff. Volunteers may work on the Welcoming Reception or Publicity Committees, counseling or one of the many other areas volunteers are needed.
Volunteers gain valuable experience while helping others.
The Volunteer Corps is composed of military spouses, retired military personnel and retired civilians with no formal affiliation with the military community. Volunteers are unpaid members of ACS, providing assistance to personnel who have direct responsibility for operations of the ACS Program. Many volunteers have found their experience and training to be a key in obtaining rewarding paid employment later. Volunteer time is flexible. Child care is provided free of charge at the Child Development Center for children of volunteers.
