Air Force Exceptional Family Member Program

The Air Force Exceptional Family Member Program helps maintain the highest quality of life for families with a member who has special needs. It does this by considering and accommodating assignment coordination, Family Support information, referral and resources, community support, and medical, special educational and legal services.

The Air Force EFMP supports families with special needs through the following components:

• EFMP Medical provides screening, enrollment and assignment coordination through the Family Member Travel Screening process.
• EFMP Assignments considers the medical and educational needs of the family when the required services are not available at the airman’s or guardian’s current or projected assignment location.
• EFMP Family Support coordinates on- and off-base Family Support services based on each family’s needs assessments.
