Family Care is a very important part of the Wounded Warrior Regiment. Using a proactive approach, the Regiment strives to identify and solve the often unique family support needs of our staff and Wounded, Ill, and Injured (WII) Marine, their families, and caregivers. The Regiment provides information to families of the Wounded Warrior Regiment staff through Family Readiness Officers (FRO) and to the families of warriors on their recovery path through Family Support Coordinators (FSC).

What is a FRO/FSC?
The FRO/FSC is a member of the unit who provides oversight and coordination of all aspects of family support that impact the well-being and resiliency of Marines and their families.

What does the FRO/FSC do?
Support for the Wounded Warrior Regiment families comes through a variety of methods. The FRO/FSC stands ready to provide family support through official communication, education and training and local resource assistance to meet the current and future needs of the staff, WII and their families

The FRO/FSC will:

• Enlighten families through official and Regimental command instruction and information.
• Encourage and facilitate two-way communication between the Marine, their families and through their commands.
• Educate families with information and resources options available.
• Coordinate and host events for Regiment staff, WII, and their families.
• Assist with relocation and local resource assistance.
