What is AFAP?
The AFAP
is a grassroots level process that identifies issues of concern for the
GLOBAL Army. The AFAP is a program that gives everyone in the Army the
opportunity to influence his/her own quality of
life and standard of living.
How is AFAP Accomplished?
Fort
Rucker will host an AFAP conference that will bring together
representatives of the TOTAL ARMY. These representatives, serving as
conference delegates, will evaluate issues that effect our quality of
life at Fort Rucker and throughout the
Army.
What qualifies as an AFAP
issue?
Issues
that affect everyone at Fort Rucker or the Global Army are good AFAP
issues. The focus should be on improving facilities, changing policy or
regulation, and just making things work better for everyone. Issues may
be on pay and allowance, readiness, retention and training, single
Soldier issues, PCS moves, medical, dental, schools, childcare, AAFES,
MWR activities, and volunteers.
What is not an AFAP issue?
Remember
issues should focus on improving the quality of life for everyone, not
just one persons “Pet Rock”. If you are having problems with a facility
or particular organization then please report to the commander or
manager of that facility or you may wish to go online to
http://ICE.DISA.mil
to make a customer comment about any military installation and their
services.
