LEADERSHIP PHILOSOPHY A N D TENETS Marine & Family Programs Division is guided in its mission and vision by the following tenets which underscore our intent: • S u p p o r t the O p e r a t i n g Forces, Tenant C o m m a n d s a n d families of C a m p Pendleton/Barstow — We are here to support and we must remain committed to this very critical component. Our positive impact in assisting those we serve has and will continue to enhance mission readiness. We are excited to serve and look at every opportunity to assist as one that will make a positive and lasting difference by providing world class service. We are proud to serve in an organization that has an unparalleled legacy. We will continue to make a difference— by working across all levels of command with individual Marines, Sailors, and their families to maintain mission readiness of the war fighter. • Building the Team – Take C a r e of our People—We must continue to seek opportunities for professional development of those on our team. Employees within the division are truly what makes Marine & Family Programs aboard Camp Pendleton/Barstow a leader in programmatic service delivery to commands, Marines, Sailors, and their families. The continual development and professional growth of those on our team is an integral part of today’s success, and is what will be instrumental in meeting future challenges. • Cross-Organizational Collaboration — In an era of fiscal austerity, coupled with the changing environment within the Marine Corps, we must look for new methods of partnership across programs. We must seek common ground and connect in a manner that enhances support to those we serve. Simply, where we work together we strengthen support, flexibility and capability to those we serve. • Anticipation of Requirements — A s we deal with change, we must learn to embrace the transformation as the Marine Corps evolves. We must respond quickly to change and be readily capable of providing support. B y anticipating the need, which can only come through regular communication across our organization, commands and individual Marines, Sailors and their families, we will be where the need is prior to it being needed. • Plan for S u c c e s s —What we d o has an impact on the success of those we serve. We will plan to be where our customers need in order to meet them where they are in the life continuum. B y planning for success, we are planning to meet and exceed the requirements of our stakeholders in both current and future requirements. We look for methods that will allow us to sustain current programs while enhancing capabilities for optimum outcomes. • A n a l y z e Performance a n d I m p a c t of Data PQI—All organizations must tie their daily efforts and tasks to clear objectives aimed at accomplishing the mission. We are committed to this philosophy and will continue to d o so by ensuring that we understand our goals and focus on analyzing performance. We will seek stakeholder and customer feedback, review performance metrics including utilization rates, and review the accomplishment of programmatic goals. • Challenges —We must remain cognizant of challenges including lack of program awareness and stove piped approaches. B y remaining keenly aware of the opportunity for programmatic marketing and opportunities for collaboration, we will position Marine & Family Programs aboard Camp Pendleton/ Barstow with an eye towards the future. We will seek every opportunity to inform our customers of who we are, what we can do, where we can support, and ensure that everyone we come in contact with knows just how much we care. • Take Action—Never hesitate to take action, communicate a challenge to management or generally step in and make a positive difference. 5
THE G O A L S O F MARINE & FAMILY P R O G R A M S A B O A R D C A M P PENDLETON/BARSTOW The goals of Marine & Family Programs aboard Camp Pendleton/Barstow are to meet the vision and intent of the Marine Corps in that we will focus on ensuring mission readiness through our provision of services. Those goals and objectives that we have set and work diligently to achieve, align to this intent as we seek new methods of service delivery while making communication with stakeholders a key pillar to our success. A s part of this methodology, we must remember that cross-organizational collaboration and teamwork amongst our four major branches will inevitably enable us to further reach and exceed our goals. We recognize that we operate in an environment that is ever changing and dynamic. Our installation houses the Marine Corps premier amphibious training base, and as such we see a high rate of deployments and training evolutions. This fast paced and ever-evolving environment creates both the need and opportunity for us to truly make a difference in the lives of our Marines, Sailors and their families as they navigate the unique military lifestyle. A s we advocate for and provide service delivery to our customers, we are focused on our objectives, measurables, and initiatives. All of these areas keep Marine & Family Programs nimble and able to seek out the opportunity to assist as opposed to awaiting its arrival. B y clearly focusing on anticipation, we will both be able to apply staff resources and fiscal resources in the right areas at the right time. The goal of analyzing our movement towards and achievement of our mission, vision, objectives and intent will be the rudder by which we will drive the division. B y doing this, we will continually provide our own internal assessment and verify through analysis that we are in fact focusing our efforts in the right area. Conducting focus groups and receiving stakeholder feedback is a key goal and objective for our division. Knowing what is needed and how we can better assist only makes us stronger and places us in the best position to support the Marine Corps Mission and that of assisting Marines, Sailors and their families with thriving in this military lifestyle. The goal of sharing and distributing best practices must remain a focus of our efforts. Together, we will identify areas that are potential opportunities to further impact readiness. A s we have seen with multiple branch initiatives, when branches work together and share ideas, collectively we have the opportunity to become stronger. There always opportunities for these initiatives and one of our key goals is to find them and implement measures to make them a reality. Our customers benefit when we link them to resources across of the division. We all must remember that each of us can and should provide information and referral. Resources Needed: We must plan resource allocation, focus, and review ranging from budgetary requirements to support methodologies. We will d o this through: 6 · Maintaining a needs awareness perspective through constant organizational assessment and communication with commands along with customers. · Continuously assess Programmatic, Branch, and M&FP Division level support through a Performance and Quality Improvement (PQI) process. · Assessing the trending needs of supported commands and individual customers.
T H E MARINE & FAMILY P R O G R A M S TEAM A B O A R D CAMP P E N D L E T O N / B A R S T O W A N D T H E A L I G N E D MISSION STATEMENTS MARINE & FAMILY P R O G R A M S (DIVISION) “To provide capabilities to operational commanders in order to increase individual and unit readiness through a collaborative, forward leaning and engaged system of support to the Marines, Sailors and their families of Camp Pendleton/Barstow across a full continuum of family readiness, personal and professional development, family care and behavioral health needs. ” FAMILY READINESS (MARINE C O R P S FAMILY TEAM BUILDING) “The mission of Marine Corps Family Team Building (MCFTB) is to enhance personal & family readiness for the service members aboard Camp Pendleton/Barstow & prepare our families to successfully meet the challenges of the military lifestyle, ultimately enhancing mission readiness. ” Summary: Family Readiness provides training, education, and services designed to assist Marines, Sailors and their families. The Family Readiness Branch consists of six distinct areas including Readiness and Deployment Support, Deployment/Uniformed Readiness Coordinator Training, Lifestyle, Insight, Networking, Knowledge, and Skills (L. I. N. K. S. ), Life. Skills, Information & Referral, and the Volunteer Coordinator Program.

BEHAVIORAL HEALTH “The mission of Behavioral Health Branch is to promote military readiness and improve quality of life for our military (active duty) and their family members aboard Camp Pendleton/Barstow. ” The Behavioral Health Programs at Camp Pendleton/Barstow provide a continuum of care for Marines, Sailors, and their families. This integrated behavioral health system includes the Family Advocacy Program (FAP), New Parent Support Program (NPSP), the Community Counseling Center (CCC), the Substance Abuse Counseling Center (SACC) and the Sexual Assault Prevention and Response Program (SAPR). F A P provides 24/7 victim advocacy services for victims of domestic violence. The New Parent Support Program (NPSP) provides education, prevention and home visiting professionals for families with children 0 -5 and families with older children as directed. The C C C provides individual, family, couple and child counseling and group treatment for issues such as anger management. The S A C C provides a robust prevention and education program as well as intensive outpatient treatment services. The S A P R is led by two installation Sexual Assault Response Coordinators and employs an experienced team of victim advocates providing coverage 24/7 for all victims of sexual assault. These programs work in collaboration with all other Marine & Family Programs as well as Naval medicine, IMEF prevention assets, Military Family Life Counselors (MFLCS), Operational Stress Control and Readiness (OSCARS), Deployment/Uniformed Readiness Coordinators and Chaplains, to provide a seamless spectrum of behavioral health services to support personal, unit and mission readiness. 7
PERSONAL & PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT (P&PD) “P&PD’s primary mission is to assist Marines and their spouses in achieving their personal and professional goals during their active duty service and to prepare them for separation. We work to support mission readiness and assist with improving morale through services such as Transition Assistance, Higher Education, Library Services, Family Member Employment Assistance, and Financial Education. ” Summary: Personal and professional development starts at the very beginning when recruits arrive at one of the recruit depots or candidates arrive at Officer Candidate School, and continues throughout the lifetime of the Marine, regardless of their length of service. We provide a continuum of tangible learning or experienced based opportunities supporting performance or career goals of Marines and their families. We strive to establish a one- stop-shop to help Marines navigate more effectively throughout their military career in preparation for a successful transition. FAMILY CARE “The mission of Family Care is to provide quality care for children and youth as well as family programs that support operational readiness, mission accomplishment and retention of military and civilian families aboard Camp Pendleton/Barstow. ” Summary: Family Care focuses on the needs of families by encompassing all aspects of childcare as well as providing high quality developmental and recreational programs that supports the care and developmental continuum of Marine Corps children from birth to age 18. The Exceptional Family Member Program and School Liaison Programs form the basis of support and attend to unique and typical family needs while addressing or mitigating the impacts of mission and other environmental factors that may challenge the resiliency, care, health, quick acclimation, education or safety of Marine Corps Children. 8
DEMOGRAPHICS The Marine Corps is unique from the other services as there are more active duty personnel than family members. There are 182, 954 active duty Marines and 154, 224 family members: 64, 953 spouses, 89, 128 children, and 143 parents. This close relationship, 49: 51, is unique among the military services. The active duty to family member ratios of the Army, Navy, and Air Force are all approximately 40% Service Members to 60% family members. When considering the number of Active Duty Marines and Family members, the enlisted ranks account for approximately 84% of the combined population. The ratio of Enlisted Marine and family member to Officer Marine and family member is approximately 5. 1: 1. 1 Marines are the youngest, most junior, and least married of the four military services. With approximately 64, 953 spouses and 89, 128 children, there are nearly just as many active duty Marines as there are respective Family members. For purposes of this document, the Marine Family is defined as the number of married Marines with a child, the number of married Marines without a child, and the number of single Marines with a dependent child. • A s of J u n 2 0 , there were 182, 954 A c t i v e D u t y Marines • 6 6 % are 2 5 or y o u n g e r • 3 9 % are L a n c e C o r p o r a l or b e l o w • 2 4 % are not o l d e n o u g h to legally c o n s u m e alcohol • A s of J u n 2 0 , 4 2 % of Marines are married • A v e r a g e of a married, Enlisted Marine is 30. 7 years o l d • A n n u a l divorce rate is 3. 1%, the lowest of all the military services • A v e r a g e of 1. 2 children involved in e a c h divorce • A s of J u n 2 0 , there were 89, 128 children of Marines • A v e r a g e of a Marine at birth of first child is 24. 1 years o l d • 4 , 0 9 0 single Marines have 6 , 0 6 3 d e p e n d e n t children (2. 2% of all Marines) • 8, 595 Marines with 11, 026 exceptional family m e m b e r s • 4 8 % of Marine C o r p s children are 5 years of a g e or younger, c o m p a r e d to approximately 41% for the other services • Marines overall divorce rate in F Y 2 0 w a s 2 % • In F Y 2 0 , the divorce rate for Marines with a d e p l o y m e n t history w a s 1. 9%, c o m p a r e d to 2. 2% for Marines with n o d e p l o y m e n t history.

STRATEGIC OBJECTIVES I MARINES AND SAILORS RETURNING FROM DEPLOYMENT The Marine Corps has been engaged in combat operations for over a decade and this brought with it challenges in the form of the increases in psychological trauma many have experienced. The Marine Corps has worked diligently to surge various capabilities through the implementation of specialized programs across the institution and Camp Pendleton/Barstow. This increased support and resources has heightened our ability to address these challenges by offering a full complement of capabilities across the full spectrum of need. Within Marine & Family Programs aboard Camp Pendleton/Barstow, our Behavioral Health Branch is leading the way on coordinating these many capabilities and has seen tremendous success in supporting our Marines, Sailors, and their families. These challenges are such that we remain fully committed to supporting the needs of the commands and individuals across a full spectrum of services. Through ongoing and regular dialogue with stakeholders, customers, and the network of support, we are fully committed to providing care, prevention, screening, and non-medical counseling services. OBJECTIVES • Continue to build on the successes of the Community Counseling Center capabilities to improve prevention, screening, and non-medical counseling services • Build on the established relationships with M E F level prevention staff to coordinate resources while ensuring support to operational commands with expertise across the spectrum of behavioral health initiatives • Identify all areas where cross organizational collaboration between all branches will harness the strength of the team approach as it applies to Behavioral Health and adjacent branches • Strengthen the understanding of the full range of Behavioral Health capabilities during all periods of leadership changes to ensure continuity of programmatic, service delivery, and local policies are understood 10
STRATEGIC OBJECTIVES II S U C C E S S F U L TRANSITION O F T H O S E THAT S E R V E D A N D THEIR FAMILIES A tremendous amount of success has been seen in the area of transition as we support the full life cycle of those we are here to serve. We continue to build on these successes and are relentlessly pursuing areas to continue to strengthen the process and procedures. We will be positioned to support those we serve at every level of their preparation for transition. This approach takes into consideration a focus on partnerships—these partnerships include many of the teammates that assist Marine & Family Programs in ensuring transition readiness. Our team works alongside Veteran Affairs representatives, Veteran Services Organizations, Department of Labor, and external partners who provide assistance and resources for those transitioning. Collaboration across multiple areas ranging from financial readiness through resume writing allows us to continue to focus on the total preparedness model to be there throughout the transition process. We have built additional capacity, increased staffing, and extended partnerships across a myriad of areas. We can take pride in these successes. However, we will remain mindful that there is always room for growth and the successful transition of those who served, along with their families, is of critical importance. Close collaboration with our transition partners will open the door for new and innovative ideas while providing a road map for our collective efforts to assist Marines, Sailors, and their families with beginning the next chapter of their lives. OBJECTIVES • Continue to work in close coordination with strategic partners in order to offer unparalleled transition resources across the full continuum of the military life cycle. • Provide services at various touch points throughout the career paths of Marines, Sailors, and their families and aimed at self-service access, integration of resources, and the marketing of areas available to the customers, ensuring transition readiness is a key component to the management of services. • Anticipate future requirements as it relates to the future end strength of the Marine Corps and the services that will be needed to meet any emerging requirements while being cognizant of the needs associated with ensuring Marines, Sailors, and family member are successful within the civilian sector. • Build on the successes of command involvement in the transition process through information delivery, marketing approach, and availability of services coupled with feedback mechanisms. 11
STRATEGIC OBJECTIVES III IMPROVE ENGAGEMENT A C R O S S CUSTOMER BASE, STAKEHOLDERS, AND THROUGH ADJACENT ORGANIZATIONS Each day we see where technology has increased our ability to effectively communicate. Within the Marine Corps, this is just as much a reality and we must embrace this shifting change in methods for reaching our stakeholders. First, we must solidify our overall communications plan that encompasses methods, frequency and events. Knowing how we will communicate will allow us to use those resources and provide for a systematic method for delivery of information regarding services. This strategic communications plan must take into account all available methods while then determining definitive paths and approaches. Consideration as to generational preferences for communication styles and systems will be incorporated into courses of action. Next, in order to effectively reach our patron base, we must determine frequency of communication and with this analysis we set in place a rhythm in which both our team and customers can expect to reach those communication touch-points. By knowing when and how we will communicate while ensuring that our stakeholders are equally apprised of this methodology, we will see the effectiveness of how we provide our message improve. Lastly, we must know where we will communicate, and by this we are discussing venues or key events for which we have staff members participate. By overlaying a full listing of events, ranging from the monthly DRC/URC SYNC meetings to local command briefs, we align the strategic messaging and thereby more fully promulgate key division information across branch areas of responsibility. Each branch should be capable, and must be prepared, to discuss the overall Marine & Family Programs set of offerings. This strengthens our ability to communicate at all times, all capabilities to all stakeholders. Ensuring we do not remain in our comfort zone, we must be able to identify a need, tie that need to the branch and the program that can offer a solution, then relay this information to the customer in real time. Critical to this goal is knowing the organizational structure and the methods by which customers can further access these services, including but not limited to, contact information, facility location, and overview of specific options. OBJECTIVES • Enhance our ability to communicate across our customer base, with stakeholders, and across organizations. Evaluate use of technology and seek opportunities to work to enhance communication, service availability, and familiarity. • Work in collaboration with M C C S Marketing to proactively promulgate information on services, support options, programmatic delivery, and access availability. This effort will ensure heightened awareness of our capability with the intent to increase utilization. • Refine the process of collaboration with Marketing to effectively target and leverage new technology to enhance customer access and service availability and recognition. • Each branch will work to collaborate and cross-organizationally promote service delivery options to customers and flatten communication lines relative to service options. Each interaction with our customers is an opportunity to provide information on additional services that will positively enhance readiness and support individual Marines, Sailors, or their families. • We must remain ahead of our opportunity to be in step with those we serve, and the best way to d o this is through a full understanding of opportunities by which we can seek to provide assistance and support. 12
STRATEGIC OBJECTIVES IV FOCUS AND BUILD ON CROSS ORGANIZATIONAL TEAMWORK AND COLLABORATION We must seek internal partnerships where interdependence becomes a strength and the mutual support towards the common goal becomes the standard. B y seeing things through a common vision, seeking synergy and strength through collaboration, and bringing together various elements of our programs, we will reduce redundancy and harness capability. Each branch and program is an entry point or portal for customers. B y this, it is intended to be an opportunity where customers can seek out options with one of our team members adept at providing information and referral to the appropriate area of expertise resident within Marine & Family Programs. One area that has routinely been highlighted by stakeholders is the volume of options available relative to services. Though the services offered are wonderful and built to assist our Marines, Sailors and their families navigating the myriad of resources can sometimes be daunting. Through a greater emphasis on cross organizational efforts and integration of operations, the intent is to recruit the entire team of Marine & Family Programs with demystifying available options and where they can be found. B y being able to cross market programs, customers can be more rapidly plugged into beneficial programs aimed at servicing their specific need. B y listening to the customer, knowing the resources and being able to make that connection, we better position ourselves, our team and our division to assist those we are here to serve. A n addition benefit to cross organizational collaboration is finding opportunities to become even more fiscally sound. In an era of fiscal austerity, being able to pool resources will serve our collective goals as we can focus precious fiscal resources in the right areas at the right time in order to benefit the mission and our customers. OBJECTIVES • • Identify current and ongoing cross-organizational initiatives while evaluating their successes. • Evaluate utilization numbers to identify trends, opportunities for improvement, or resource needs to enhance support to those we serve. A s part of this objective, each branch will seek to anticipate requirements while providing a clear understanding of current state and anticipated future needs to Marine & Family Programs Division. • Provide opportunities for integration of service delivery and operations as part of the overall support network across the organization. Ensuring each employee is aware of all programmatic offerings will enable more effective interactions with customers to provide resource directions ultimately connecting those we serve with the right resource at the right time. • Seek opportunities to build on collaborative efforts of partner organizations to strengthen the network of support. • Identify opportunities to integrate volunteer opportunities across the installation, ultimately enhancing and further building a community of service, and strengthening relationships across our military community. Seek new methods to cross-organizationally collaborate and harness the power of dual Branch support when possible to address the needs of those we serve. 13
STRATEGIC OBJECTIVES V S T R E N G T H E N O U R C O N N E C T I O N TO COMMUNITY B A S E D S T A K E H O L D E R S W H I L E B E I N G A K E Y L E A D E R IN F U R T H E R BUILDING A COMMUNITY O F S U P P O R T We must continually seek opportunities to both work with and expand our relationship across the network of community based partners. Our relationship in working with the Armed Service Y M C A is but one of the successes that we have seen when we partner with other community organizations focused on taking care of Marines, Sailors and their families. Over the last decade, the expansion of Deployment/Uniformed Readiness Coordinators, M E F Prevention Specialists, and Military Family Life Consultants are just some of the additions to the team that supports the warfighter and their families. Knowing one another’s strengths, capabilities, and areas of expertise will, in effect, connect the processes together. We must display the leadership, foresight, and desire to build on these community based partnerships, while seeking new opportunities that we may not have considered in the past. To d o this, each branch within Marine & Family Programs must first and foremost identify these strategic community based partners and assess the state of collaboration, while looking for opportunities to grow. This type of community connection only strengthens the network of support for those we serve and is just one example of opportunities that exist to partner in ways that extend our reach in supporting Marines, Sailors, and their families. Commanders have more capabilities now than ever to assist them in taking care of Marines, Sailors, and their families. With these additional capabilities also comes the need to know how to navigate the resources and find the area that can ultimately positively impact the needs of the individual, unit, and reach the commanders intent to assist. This is where Marine & Family Programs must excel and be the source that without exception, can assist commanders in building situational awareness of program resources while also being available to provide a common source in which units can come for information. This approach extends beyond our organic capability of Information and Referral. We must seek opportunities to brief commands at all levels to enhance understanding of services offered both internal and external to Marine & Family Programs to the extent possible. To d o this, we must fully embrace that we are in a community committed to taking care of Marines, Sailors, and their families. Knowing the resources, how they can positively assist commanders, and ultimately ensure fluidity of service access, is a core mission of Marine & Family Programs and one in which we will excel. OBJECTIVES • Identify current and developing community based initiatives to further understand the ongoing network of support. • Seek to identify clear areas of support from external stakeholders and the impact on support to Marines, Sailors, and their families. • Look for common goals and ways to collaborate external to a specific branch in order to increase capacity and connection to services ultimately increasing mission readiness of those we serve. 14
STRATEGIC OBJECTIVES VI POSITION O U R S E L V E S TO IMPLEMENT A N D F U R T H E R D E V E L O P E V I D E N C E B A S E D PRACTICES, TRAINING, A N D SUPPORT S E R V I C E S We will see a continued emphasis on introducing evidence based training into curricula across Marine & Family Programs. This approach will impact each Branch within our organization and over the next several years this will serve as a backbone to services we offer. Coordination with Headquarters Marine Corps will be a critical component as we assist by providing vital feedback as to the need from the field. Our active participation in working through identifying new curriculum approaches, while providing feedback when we implement new training initiatives, will assist the institution with shaping the future of offerings for our Marines, Sailors, and their families. Evidenced based training will allow for further implementation of relevant information that ultimately enhances our ability to positively impact mission readiness in the units we work to serve. Knowing we are offering evidence based curricula will also further build mutual trust with those we serve. Marine & Family Programs must play an active role in evaluating our programs, technology utilization and the processes that we have in place. We must seek best practices from across the enterprise and evaluate the merits of local implementation. Likewise, we must share ideas both internally and externally so that we anticipate the needs of our customers, find proven solutions, and implement trainings or briefs that have been scrutinized for relevancy. By doing this, we will learn from not only one another but also partners and teammates from across the Marine Corps. A s mentioned, as initiatives are identified whether locally or by higher headquarters we must communicate these ideas and quickly assess how they can most efficiently and effectively be implemented aboard Camp Pendleton/Barstow. Our team must remain on the cutting edge of services offered and the delivery methods. We must look to the future and work with key stakeholders and customers to shape our organization in a way that we are positioned and prepared to deliver future services before they become a reality. By being proactive and thinking outside of the box we will be more in step with our customers throughout the full military life cycle. A s we innovate we must evaluate. We must be proud of our many accomplishments but remain ever mindful that today is when we prepare for tomorrow. All branches prepare the organization for its look, operations, and scope of work in order to meet the needs of our customers in the future. From this vantage point, collectively we will be able to set a course that takes us to where we will need to be as we move forward. OBJECTIVES • Position each Branch to implement new training curricula and other evidence based initiatives through continual dialogue with Headquarters Marine Corps. This dialogue will ensure Marine & Family Programs aboard Camp Pendleton/Barstow understands the intent, timeline, and expectations, while also providing an opportunity for feedback. • Review information as it is developed, be active participants in implementation of change, and set the conditions for success at the local Installation level. • Develop plans for implementation of all new initiatives while being poised to brief, market and promulgate information across the full scope of those we serve. A s initiatives develop and are distributed, we must remain mindful that further understanding and programmatic offering information is briefed both to customers and across the installation commands. 15
STRATEGIC OBJECTIVES VII THE IMPORTANCE O F P E R F O R M A N C E A N D QUALITY IMPROVEMENT Various systems exist within the larger scope of Marine & Family Programs to ensure that we further build on successes to identify critical information such as utilization rates, trends, command needs, and budget utilization. All of this information is critical to making informed decisions while also being able to clearly relay the situational realities. Our ability to compile customer utilization within various programs is essential since when assembled this data provides a method for Marine & Family Programs to recognize valuable trend lines. This data provides factual information that we will use as we discuss trends. Likewise, it ensures we are applying the right level of resources against the right challenge at the right time. Absent this information or when not scrutinized through a strategic lens, we stand to miss anticipating the need or the opportunity to be where the commands need when they need us. This data also provides us the opportunity to review information through the scope of budget realities and again apply resources to the concerns that most positively impact the Marines, Sailors, and their families. Accordingly, each branch will continue to collect utilization based information while providing summary information to Marine & Family Programs. Additionally, each branch will provide a summary as to their view of what this data means both now and in the future. Are we appropriately positioned to meet the current and future needs of those we serve? Our organization must be able to provide impactful information as to the results of our efforts. These objective results will inform the direction of the organization and enable Marine & Family Programs aboard Camp Pendleton/ Barstow to best encapsulate the tremendous impact of our efforts across each Branch and individual program. Performance management/PQI is the backbone of fact based decisions and process and procedural implementation. OBJECTIVES • Review performance management metrics to ensure that intended programmatic outputs are being achieved in accordance with intent. • Continue to procure information based on utilization rates while further routing information to the Marine & Family Programs (Division) to maintain awareness as to appropriate resource allocation. • Analyze information and prepare for change implementation based on shifting of focuses based on the needs of Marines, Sailors, and their families coupled with the close coordination with commands. • Develop the most effective methods for data evaluation to heighten awareness and therefore informing decisions from a programmatic level while maintain dialogue with all stakeholders through a variety of means. • Seek opportunities to provide transparent briefs on the state of programs while also conducting internal programmatic evaluations to determine service delivery weaknesses and strengths. 16
