What is DFMWR?
Army DFMWR exists because the U.S. Army is committed to the well-being of the
community of people who serve and stand ready to defend the nation.
Army DFMWR is a comprehensive network of support and leisure services designed to
enhance the lives of Soldiers (Active, Reserve, and Guard), their Families,
civilian employees, military retirees and other eligible participants. Over
37,000 DFMWR employees worldwide strive to deliver the highest quality programs
and services at each installation -- from family, child and youth programs to
recreation, sports, entertainment, travel and leisure activities.
Their mission is to serve the needs, interests and responsibilities of each
individual in the Army community for as long as they are associated with the
Army, no matter where they are.
DFMWR contributes to the Army's strength and readiness by offering services that
reduce stress, build skills and self-confidence and foster strong esprit de
corps. DFMWR services also help the Army attract and retain talented people. DFMWR
is proof of the Army's commitment to caring for the people who serve and stand
ready to defend the nation.
