30 Years of Fleet and Family Support

Week of July 20, 2009

The Fleet and Family Support Program recently marked 30 years of service to Sailors and their families. On July 9, 1979, the first Family Service Center (FSC) opened its doors in Norfolk, Va. FSC San Diego opened its doors shortly thereafter. Today, the Fleet and Family Support Program continues to deliver its core mission with a growing number of programs and services focusing on deployment support, crisis response, career support and counseling for individuals, families and commands. A Facebook and Twitter page was also added to mark the anniversary. The Fleet and Family Support Program's Facebook page is found. The Twitter address.
