The Exceptional Family Member Program supports eligible military families whose members have identified medical or special educational needs. It helps coordinate assignment considerations and connects families with information, referrals, and support during relocations. Enrollment rules, forms, and available assistance should always be verified through the official EFMP office.
Start here: three practical steps
- Locate the official EFMP office for your installation or recruiting region.
- Ask which medical or educational documentation is needed and which enrollment forms currently apply.
- Discuss upcoming moves, service availability, schools, and case-management questions with the assigned EFMP professionals.
Key parts of EFMP
Official MCCS materials describe enrollment and identification, assignment coordination, and family support. Documentation may include forms relating to medical needs and educational services; a local EFMP adviser can explain the current requirements.
Planning a relocation
Document ongoing services, contact providers in the gaining area, and discuss continuity-of-care concerns before moving. Do not assume a particular treatment or school service will be available without checking.
Finding the right contact
Use the official MCCS installation selector to find the relevant office. If the first office is not the correct one, ask for a referral to the program manager or family-support staff who can address your situation.
