Army Community Service Building

What is AFAP?
The Army Family Action Plan (AFAP) is input from the people of the Army to Army leadership. It’s a process that lets Soldiers and families say what’s working, what is not working, and what they think will fix it. It alerts commanders and Army leaders to areas of concern that need their attention and it gives them the opportunity to quickly put plans into place to work toward resolving the issues.

Gives commanders a gauge to validate concerns and measure satisfaction
Helps retain the best and the brightest
Results in legislation, policies, programs and services that strengthen readiness and retention
Safeguards well-being

How it works:
Installations hold AFAP forums where Soldiers (Active, National Guard, Reserve, and retired), DA civilians, and family members identify issues that they believe are important for maintaining a good quality of life. The Commander sees to it that the issues are worked toward resolution. Some issues are applicable beyond the local level. These are sent to the MACOM AFAP Conference or to the HQDA Worldwide Conference, where many of them are put into the overall Army Plan.
