ADF personnel and their families will be welcomed to new locations across the country over the coming weeks.
The Defence Community Organisation is set to host a number of in-person and virtual welcome events over the next few weeks for personnel and their families.
The welcome events will showcase local community and government services, and provide information about education, partner employment assistance, recreation and support services available in the local area.
“Each of the local Defence Community Organisation offices across Australia works with local community groups and support services to support ADF families and build a strong, connected and resilient Defence community,” Minister for Defence Personnel Darren Chester said.
“For the first time, the inclusion of a virtual welcome platform means even more ADF members and their families, wherever they live, can access the range of welcome information at their convenience and from the comfort of home.
“Defence Community Organisation offers a range of programs and services to help ADF members and their families manage the challenges and opportunities of military life.”
The program will run for approximately six weeks, from early February through to mid-March.
