Building Teamwork
The
Welcome Briefing introduces you to the basics of working with the unit command and
the Family Readiness Group (FRG)/Key Volunteer Program. It is designed to help you
learn more about life as part of the National Guard Family and your loved one’s
unit and mission. During your Welcome Briefing, you will be introduced to your Family
member’s unit, the Commander and the First Sergeant, among others, as well as learn
the unit’s mission.
These briefings will be hosted by your Family Program Office. These programs are
designed to help Guard Families and Guard Members succeed and may include:
- Help in understanding military benefits and entitlements
- Education and trainings to prepare for different aspects of military life
A successful Welcome allows for an interaction between all parties and a chance
for questions and answers. It provides an understanding of the unit mission. We
want to help the National Guard Member accomplish their mission while connecting
our Service Members, Families, and community resources together.
This Welcome Briefing builds upon the Guard Member and Family member's knowledge
gained in Step 1, effectively laying a foundation for all future trainings. If you
