The Exceptional Family Member Program (EFMP), outlined in Army Regulation 608-75, works in concert with other military and civilian agencies to offer a comprehensive, multidisciplinary approach for medical, social, educational, community support, or services for Soldiers and their Family Members with special physical, emotional, or intellectual needs. ACS EFMP components include information, referral, client advocacy, Family-find activities, recreational, cultural programs and respite care, when the need has been assessed. The ACS Center maintains a directory of military and civilian special education and information and referral services for special needs Families. To speak to EFMP Coordinator please call POC.

The goal of the SNAP is to help all children reach and realize their full potential. The SNAP is a team that assists in determining the safest, least restrictive, and most appropriate placement of children with special needs who wish to use Child, Youth and School (CYS) Services. The SNAP team meets weekly and works with the parents to develop a care plan to ensure the child’s experiences in CYS Services are safe, memorable and successful. When the Family registers for any CYS Services program, and identifies a child with a condition, the process will be initiated. The SNAP team serves as an advocate to ensure the child’s rights are protected and respected.

What is the SVC Program? The SVC Program provides a no-cost military attorney to victims of sexual assault who qualify for SVC services. What does a SVC do? A SVC is a licensed attorney who can advise you on a range of legal and economic matters you may have as a victim of sexual assault. An SVC can be your legal guide, so you don't have to walk alone as you meet with investigators, prosecutors, and other people involved in the military justice process. Who qualifies for SVC services? In general, if you are a victim of sexual assault and fit into one of the following categories, you may qualify for SVC services through the Fort Knox Legal Assistance Office: Soldier (no matter whether the offender was a Soldier or not) Family Member of a Soldier (if you have a military ID and the offender was a Soldier) ROTC cadet on contract (if the offender was a Soldier or fellow cadet) Deployed or OCONUS DoD Civilian employee (if the offender was a Soldier) Foreign military personnel (if the offender was a Soldier) If you are a Reserve or National Guard Soldier, you may qualify for services under your component's own SVC Program. If you are an Army Family Member sexually assaulted by a member of another branch of the Armed Forces, you may qualify for SVC services through that other branch (e.g., Navy, Air Force). Do I have to file an unrestricted report to be eligible for SVC services? No! If you qualify for an SVC, you don't have to make an unrestricted (open) report of sexual assault. Your SVC can explain to you the difference between restricted and unrestricted reporting. In fact, you can get the advice of an SVC attorney and then choose not to report at all. It is completely up to you. Will the things I say to a SVC be kept confidential? A SVC is an attorney and is bound by the strictest rules of confidentiality. Whatever you tell your SVC in confidence will be kept in confidence by the SVC, unless and until YOU decide that someone else should know. What if I did something illegal before, during, or after the sexual assault? Victims of sexual assault are people, too. This means that sometimes they mess up and do things that are unethical or illegal. This is called collateral misconduct, which can take the form of underage drinking, drug use, or inappropriate relationships. Some people who have experienced sexual assault feel they don't have a right to report the assault because of their own collateral misconduct, or they may be worried about getting in trouble. A SVC can give you the confidential advice you need to make an informed decision on whether to report. If you have experienced sexual assault, you always have the right to report it, no matter what else you may have been doing at the time. How do I contact a SVC? Call the Fort Knox Legal Assistance Office at (502) 624-2771 or (703) 347-4219 to set an appointment.

The Junior Red Cross World War I inspired an official organization for young people: the American Junior Red Cross. Students knit scarves, rolled bandages and built furniture for hospitals and convalescent homes. They prepared and sent Friendship Boxes containing school and personal items to students overseas. They worked in Victory Gardens (vegetable gardens that added to the nation's food supply) and raised funds. In fact, Junior Red Cross members contributed an amazing $3,677,380 to the Red Cross during the war. After the war, members of the Junior Red Cross kept working to make children’s lives better, both overseas and here at home. Through the National Children's Fund, the Junior Red Cross aided war victims and refugees throughout Europe and helped fight against the influenza pandemic which struck both Europe and America. Funds were raised to help victims of fires, floods and tornados and to support Native American schools in the American Southwest. During the Great Depression Junior Red Cross members distributed surplus wheat and cotton, collected clothing and food and canned fruits and vegetables. Junior Red Cross membership grew to almost 20 million during World War II. Activities ranged from the production of clothing, toys, furniture and art works to entertainment and recreational programs at military camps and hospitals. Following World War II, the Junior Red Cross continued some traditional programs, such as assistance to war veterans and their families, disaster relief, and public health.

Whatever your unique situation, our registered dietitian nutritionist (RDN) can help you increase the enjoyment and success of a dietary overhaul. What can your dietitian do to help you? Customized recommendations: A dietitian has special skills and training to help you develop a nutrition program that specifically meets your needs – whether that’s a health and fitness goal, weight loss, health optimization, or medical condition. A safe approach: Fad diets can help you drop weight fast, but the weight always creeps back while potentially causing health risks. Your dietitian will develop a safe nutrition plan to meet your goals while optimizing overall nutrition and health. Answer the tough questions: Want to know if a particular supplement may be worth trying? Or perhaps you’re curious about a food-drug interaction with the new medicine your doctor just prescribed? A dietitian can work closely with the other members of your medical team to help answer some of the tough questions and make sure that a nutrition plan will best meet your needs, given your unique circumstances. Putting it all together: Know what to do but not sure how to do it in your busy life? Have multiple medical problems that require you to make changes to your eating habits? Everyone telling you something different? Not sure whether to pay attention to calories, fat, carbs, etc.? The dietitian can help you develop a customized plan of attack and help you prioritize change. Enhance motivation: There’s nothing like having a bona fide nutrition expert holding you accountable.
