The Airman & Family Readiness Center (AFRC) at Eglin AFB is the cornerstone of the Eglin family support system, helping Airmen and families enhance their readiness and quality of life. There are several programs aimed at making each user of the center feel valued and supported. An essential aspect of creating a comfortable and non-threatening environment is the staff’s protection of privacy of what individual users disclose to them within the parameters of Air Force regulations.
The AFRC offers workshops and information on financial management, relocation assistance, employment for family members, special family member needs and military transitions. PCS orders and valid identification are required to check items out from the Loan Closet, which offers small household items such as cookware, dishes, silverware, futons, small appliances, microwaves, TVs, etc. The AFRC also operates the Loan Closet—one of the first stops for Eglin newcomers.
The Airman & Family Readiness Center welcomes new volunteers who desire to provide this helpful service for their community. The AFAS offers emergency financial assistance as well as financial counseling to military members and their families.
