The Exceptional Family Member Program (EFMP) is a support initiative by the U.S. military to assist families with special needs. It identifies and acknowledges service members with family members who have specific medical, educational, or psychological needs. By registering in the EFMP, military families ensure that their assignments align with the availability of necessary support services at their duty locations. This program aims to enhance the well-being of both the service members and their exceptional family members by providing tailored resources and assistance, ultimately promoting a more supportive and accommodating military environment.
