SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title; Associated Form; and OMB Number: Exceptional Family Member
Program (EFMP) Family Needs Assessment; DD Form 3054; OMB Control
Number 0704-0580.
Needs and Uses: Section 1781c of Title 10, U.S.C. requires the
Office of Community Support for Military Families with Special Needs
(OSN) to enhance and improve support for military families with special
needs. In this effort, OSN and the four Services developed the DD Form
3054 Exceptional Family Member Program (EFMP) Family Needs Assessment
(FNA) as standard documentation to guide assessment of needs, service
planning and case transfer processes for the Family Support component
of the EFMP. The EFMP FNA assists EFMP Family Support staff in
identifying the needs of families and developing plans of action. The
EFMP FNA addresses current differences in assessment processes and
inconsistent transfer of cases across the Services. With this
standardized form, installation-level EFMP Family Support Offices can
provide a family support experience that is consistent across the
Services and maintains continuity of services when military families
with special needs have Permanent Change of Station (PCS) orders to a
Same-Service or Sister-Service location. DD form 3054 is used by EFMP
Family Support staff in collaboration with families who request
assistance in navigating resources and systems of support. The Form
documents a family's needs and provides a plan for them to gain access
to support and resources in the community which meets those needs. The
Family Services Plan Addendum provides a plan of action and a way to
track the progress towards goals set by the family with the assistance
of the EFMP Family Support staff.
