AF Surgeon General's Program Enhances Support for EFMP Families, Airmen and Guardians

April is the Month of the Military Child, a month highlighting the important role military children play in the military community. The Air Force surgeon general has made improving support for military children one of his priorities.

The health and well-being of military children is always a priority for military personnel. Their family's care can greatly impact their mental health and readiness. This is especially true for Airmen and Guardians with children or adult dependents who have specialized care needs and are enrolled in the Exceptional Family Member Program, or EFMP.
