U.S. Army Human Resources Command launched a new webpage designed to assist Soldiers and their families as they prepare to transition to a new duty assignment and location.
The Family Relocation Portal is a collection of links to resources that will help Army families make more informed choices when considering the options available to them in their assignment marketplaces.
HRC understands that several factors, other than career progression, are taken into consideration when Soldiers weigh their options in the Assignment Interactive Module 2.0 and the Assignment Satisfaction Key – Enlisted Module.
“The PCS season is one of the most important seasons to both the Human Resources Command and every Soldier in our Army,” Maj. Gen. Thomas Drew, commanding general, HRC, said. “Much consideration goes into each assignment cycle, specifically the preferences of family members. We know it is stressful to compete in the marketplace and ultimately relocate a household. To better support those decisions, HRC developed a relocation page focused on family member interests and also to provide a platform for units to recruit.”
The portal provides users with links to resources that allow them to explore the amenities, services and opportunities available at installations throughout the Army.
The new features include links that allow family members to explore job opportunities at prospective installations, and links to educational resources that can assist with navigating the hiring process and building additional skills for the future.
There are also links to a variety of resources to learn about installation amenities such as housing and signing up for on-post childcare.
One feature, to which Soldiers and families are encouraged to particular attention when considering a duty location, falls under the ‘Special Considerations’ heading. In this section, users will find location specific information ranging from the availably of telehealth resources to VISA considerations for foreign assignments.
Lastly, the site features messages directly from the leadership of units across the Army, which allows users to learn about that unit’s mission as well as amenities and programs offered that may interest any family member.
