<strong>YONGSAN GARRISON, Republic of Korea</strong> - Do you want to make a difference in this community' Well now's your chance folks! AFAP is right around the corner!
What is AFAP' AFAP is the Army Family Action Plan, one of the Army's most successful programs to enhance your quality of life. Believe me, the program has an impressive track record.
USAG-Yongsan residents will have the opportunity to influence positive change here in the garrison Oct. 22-24. The 2008 USAG-Yongsan AFAP Conference will be held in the Community Services Building on Yongsan Garrison South Post beginning at 8 a.m.
AFAP provides a way for Soldiers, Civilian Employees and Family Members to let the Army leadership know what works, what doesn't and most importantly, what is necessary to fix it.
AFAP alerts commanders to issues and topics that need their attention. The program gives the community a voice to quickly put plans into place to resolve problems.
It is a grass-roots process that directs actions to enhance readiness and increase retention by improving the well being for the entire community.
Your participation is vital. I encourage you to get involved. You can volunteer to be a delegate, facilitator, a recorder and transcriber. You can help by volunteering to be a room manager, provide issue support or as a behind-the-scenes helper with conference administration.
