U.S. Marine Corps Forces Special Operations Command

The Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society (NMCRS) offers a variety of services to Marines and Sailors, both active duty and retired, and their families.  Among the services offered are:

• Financial assistance based on need (may take the form of an interest-free loan or grant).
• Visiting Nurse Program.
• Well Baby Clinic.
• Children's waiting rooms at medical facilities.
• Budget counseling.
• Thrift shops.

***The NMCRS can only process a family member's request for financial assistance if the service member has a completed and signed permission card on file with the local NMCRS office.  If no card has been signed prior to deployment, a General Power of Attorney can be used.  To prevent possible delays, it is advisable to sign and submit the permission card prior to deployment just in case an emergency arises.
