Got Issues? Do you have a burning issue or a suggestion on how to improve the quality of life on Fort Leonard Wood? The Army Family Action Plan (AFAP) is an Army-wide program that allows all members of the Army family - active duty, retirees, National Guard, Reserves, family members, and civilian employees - the opportunity to voice concerns and raise issues concerning the quality of life to installation and Army leadership. Not only has this program had an impact on Army issues, over 52% of AFAP issues are applicable to all of the Department of Defense. All services have benefited from pay increases, dental benefits, TRICARE reform, thrift savings plan, Servicemen’s Group Life Insurance increases, housing allowances, educational opportunities, and other benefits and entitlements. Delegates from the Fort Leonard Wood community participate annually in a local AFAP Conference where issues are prioritized and recommendations are submitted to the installation leadership. Issues selected for the AFAP are then worked toward resolution by the local command. Those issues which cannot be resolved locally are forwarded to the TRADOC and/or HQDA AFAP Conferences, where delegates from across the Army work the issues. The issues that are selected for the AFAP are then worked toward resolution by Army staff and DoD agencies. You can be a part of the local AFAP by being a delegate, submitting an issue, or by volunteering to assist with the conference.
