Command Ombudsman
What are Navy Family Ombudsmen?
Navy family ombudsmen are the liaisons and communication links between the
command leadership and command families. We act as the bridge of information
to and from the commanding officer.
Please note: the Ombudsmen will not solve the problem for you, but we will
be able to point you in the right direction to help you solve the problem on
your own.
As command ombudsmen, we are volunteer, command-appointed spouses that have
received specialized training to assist you in any situation. As Navy
spouses ourselves we know and understand the hardships of serving as a Navy
family, and we offer a wealth of resources to educate you on what the Navy
has to offer. The Ombudsman Code of Ethics guarantees professionalism and
confidentiality, as set forth within our program guidelines. Contacting the
ombudsmen is the first step in discovering the large network of support and
assistance that is available.
Please be advised that in the event of child abuse or neglect, spouse abuse,
potential suicide risk or any other life endangering situation we are
mandated to report these to the proper authorities.
Your Ombudsman Team is here to assist. Contact: fordombudsman@gmail.com
