SMC Key Spouse

Is your spouse interested in becoming more involved at Los Angeles AFB in El Segundo or Fort MacArthur in San Pedro?  If so, he or she should consider becoming a Key Spouse for LAAFB/SMC.

 

What is a Key Spouse?

The Key Spouse program is an official unit/family program designed to enhance readiness and establish a sense of Air Force community. It is a commander's program that promotes partnerships with unit leadership, volunteer Key Spouses appointed by the commander, families, the Airman & Family Readiness Center and other community and helping agencies.

A Key Spouse volunteer impacts mission readiness and retention by ensuring families have appropriate information and resources to meet their needs. The program has been standardized across the Air Force to address the needs of all military families with special emphasis on support to families across the deployment cycle.
