Exceptional Family Member Program
This program assists service members in providing for the special needs of their Exceptional Family Member (EFM) before, during and after relocation required by a change of duty station. An Exceptional Family Member is defined as any authorized family member (spouse, child, stepchild, adopted child, foster child or dependent parent) residing with the sponsor who possesses a physical, intellectual or emotional disability and requires special medical or educational services. The program ensures every attempt is made to mesh military career and special family needs whenever possible. The EFM program is a mandatory program per MCO P1754.4A. The aim of the program is to assist assignment monitors at HQMC in assigning Marines to an area where the needs of their EFM can be met. |
