The readiness of Indiana National Guardsmen is in part dependent on the well-being of their families. We provide a continuum of services that connect both Guardsmen and their family members with resources that promote mental and physical fitness, well-being, resilience, financial management and education. Our family programs are the gateway to these resources.

Family Assistance
The Indiana National Guard’s Family Assistance Centers provide support to military families for a full range of situations and problems that may arise in conjunction with military deployments or in the course of the member’s service. We also provide services for veterans and for members of any branch of service. More

Family Readiness
The Indiana National Guard’s Family Readiness program works with families of service members during deployments, and when units are stateside, to promote self-sufficiency, resiliency and stability. More

Strong Bonds
The Indiana Army National Guard’s Strong Bonds program helps soldiers and their families build, strengthen, preserve and restore strong relationships by teaching skills that are useful in the military and in life. More

Survivor Outreach Services
The Indiana National Guard’s Survivor Outreach Services Program is a holistic, multi-agency approach to delivering services to survivors of fallen service members by providing these services at garrisons and communities closest to where survivor families live. More

Youth Program
The Indiana National Guard’s Child and Youth Program supports children, youth and families of Guardsmen by providing enrichment activities for youths aged 6-17. These activities can be especially helpful during times of deployment or extended separation. More
