Everyone deserves to live in a home free from abuse. As a Family Advocacy Program manager, clinician, advocate or other staff member, you are a trusted confidant and provider of resources to the military community. You are in a unique position to help those affected by child abuse and neglect, domestic abuse, and problematic sexual behaviors in children and youth.
The Defense Department is committed to the safety and well-being of military families. Being safe, secure and free from abuse is a basic human need that our military families should not have to worry about. Resources are available to help you educate and support those who need it.
This toolkit provides you with the resources, training opportunities and tools you may need to assist your military community. Each program topic offers you two sets of resources:
- Shareable resources that are ready for you to offer directly to your service members, families and leaders.
- Provider-only resources that are for your use. They include items you can download, print (or order) and place around the installation to educate the community. They also include trainings and resources just for you.
Help make sure our military families are safe and healthy.
- Take the trainings offered in the provider-only sections below.
- Make sure you understand how the coordinated community response model works and that you are one part of a greater system of support.
- Connect victims to FAP through the Domestic Abuse Victim Advocate Locator.
- Offer the following resources and education to support your military community.
