TAKING ACTION TO SERVE AMERICA’S MILITARY FAMILIES

Joining Community Forces is an entity of the Colorado National Guard Family Program Office

Joining Community Forces is a voluntary military and community cooperative partnership organized to allow service providers to engage in a multi-service networking to assist with connecting Service Members and Families to local military or community resources.

MISSION

The mission of JCF is to maximize the impact of civilian and military resources to Service Members, Families, and Veterans in order to build residence and foster a community network that is both sustainable and relevant.

VISION

JCF’s vision is to present a single entry point for resources and service providers interested in collaborating with other national and local civic-minded entities in support of Veterans, Military Members, and their Families (VMFs) in their communities.

END STATE

Ultimately, Joining Community Forces endeavors to strengthen preexisting ISFACs (Inter-Service Family Assistance Centers) across the United States through a comprehensive strategic communications plan that leverages state-generated content, best practices, and the training materials to raise public JCF collaboration and promote the initiative among prospective partner agencies and organizations. Additionally, the JCF initiative’s mission includes guiding and informing community leaders and local commanders across America on how to establish and sustain collaborative community, state, and regional JCF teams. By building community capacity from the ground up, JCF will enable proactive and effective assistance right where Veterans, Service Members, and their families live.
