Command Sponsorship
A sponsor is someone from your new command who is assigned to assist with settling into your new location. A sponsor is usually assigned through your gaining unit.
A sponsor's duties include:
- Contacting you and your family by letter of introduction or e-mail upon learning of your assignment to the installation.
- Sending any information about the installation/area which you may require, or putting you in touch with those who can supply the information.
- Answering any questions which you or your family may have, or providing the proper resources to answer those questions.
- Being available when you arrive at your installation to meet you, show you around, and help you through in processing.Your Sponsor will also assist your family members; they can connect your Spouse with other military spouses, connect your children with Youth Sponsors and ensure you have the command Ombudsman information.
Command Sponsors provide invaluable information to incoming personnel and their families. Check with your gaining command to identify your Command Sponsor; find the Duty Office number under the Major Units tab at the top of the screen. The Fleet and Family Support Center (FFSC) can also assist in locating your Sponsor, call 559-998-4042
