Drum Soldier and Family Resource Guide

This downloadable resource guide contains a wealth of information about Fort Drum's programs and services that are available.

The Relocation Readiness Program is a comprehensive program designed to help Families in the relocation process. Available seminars and briefings cover a wide range of topics, from a welcome briefing and newcomer spouse orientation to a variety of cultural activities/seminars and an overseas orientation.
Welcome packets are given to each Soldier during in-processing at the welcome center located at Clark Hall. The welcome packet comes in two formats; compact disc (CD), and a printed hard copy. By default CD’s are mailed out unless otherwise requested. This packet can also be mailed to newcomers before their arrival. Each packet contains information on ACS programs, Army Emergency Relief and other resources available on post and in the surrounding communities. Additionally, welcome packet material can be viewed or printed directly from www.militaryhomefront.dod.mil This site provides the most current information on your next duty station.
