EFMP enrollment works to ensure that needed services are available at the receiving command before the assignment is made. Parenting a child with special needs presents unique challenges and we are here to assist you.
Special Needs Library
EFMP has a special needs library located at ACS and is open to the entire community. The library includes books, DVDs, online resource information and special needs products that can help you better understand the condition of your special needs Family member.
Respite Care
Respite Care is a temporary relief for caregivers of a Family member with special needs. A military Family with an EFM that meets certain criteria is eligible for up to 40 hours of paid respite care per month. Please contact EFMP Manager at ACS for application procedures.
