Navy Revises Family Care Plan
The Navy recently announced revisions to its Family Care Plan policy, which includes a new deployment deferment option for eligible Sailors. Under the new policy, Sailors who are required to complete a family care plan and may be deployed to an area authorized imminent danger pay are allowed to request a deferment of deployment due to unforeseen circumstances. Support for caregivers designated in Family Care Plans is available Navy-wide through Fleet and Family Service Centers, Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society, Military One Source, base Child Development Centers, Navy Operational Support Centers and community and family support groups. For more information, visit the Navy Personnel Center's Family Care Plans webpage.
