Your First Stop

Indiana National Guard Soldier & Family Readiness Center The Indiana Army National Guard’s Soldier and Family Readiness Center provides support to service members, veterans and their families for a full range of situations and incidences that might hamper the mission, their quality of life or their overall wellbeing.

We act as a one-stop shop for our Guard members who are seeking current and accurate information to help navigate local services and programs. This is offered irrespective of the service member’s marital or duty status whether they are single, married or with dependents – active guard reserve, or traditional Soldiers. We also provide training and counsel to our commanders towards oversight of their Family Readiness Programs and volunteers.

With 08 locations across the state of Indiana, our goal is to become a trusted source to quell issues, concerns or answer questions for our troops. We are the state of Indiana’s ‘Resource of Resources’.
