Armed Forces Emergency Support
 
Military members and families can count on the Red Cross 24 hours a day and 7 days a week as the Red Cross keeps pace with the changing military. Using the latest in computer and telecommunications technology, the Red Cross sends communications on behalf of family members who are facing emergencies or other important events to members of the U.S. Armed Forces serving all over the world.
 
While providing services to 1.4 million active duty personnel and their families, the Red Cross also reaches out to more than 800,000 members of the National Guard and the Reserves and their families. Local Red Cross workers brief departing service members and their families regarding available support services and explain how the Red Cross may assist them during their deployment.
 
Both active duty and community-based military personnel can count on the Red Cross to provide emergency communications that link them with their families back home.
