Without a doubt, there are truly some great resources available to active and Reserve component personnel and veterans. Of course, if folks don't know that they're out there, members and their families couldn't possibly benefit from some of these amazing offers and services. So, the idea here is to share those helpful tidbits of information, tips, links, lessons learned, processes, resources, wisdom and/or POCs to help members find the resources they need for their troops, their families, and to help themselves. Just a couple of quick admin notes, please make sure to share the source if known, and remember to post in accordance with RallyPoint guidelines. Well, I'm certain that will be a great way to get timely information, resources, and assistance to those who need it most, when they need it the most... so, if you have something useful, helpful, or good-to-know, please feel free to share. Alright folks, it's that time, so pull-up a keyboard and let's get this thing started; thank you for all that you do, and... see you all in the discussion threads!

Have you ever used the Soldiers and Sailors Civil Relief Act? | RallyPoint

Many service members are unaware of the SSCRA until they get into financial problems, and even then don't use this valuable protection. However, it can also by used preemptively, too. The SM can write creditors prior to deployment to inform them that payments may be delayed and that actions against their credit rating while are illegal under SSCRA. The same applies to military families deployed in remote regions. Often it helps just to...

This thread has been in rotation for over 4 years now. There are innumerable resources that cross a myriad of subjects. It is my belief that this thread, and threads like it, are one of the main reasons RP was created and continues to exist.
While it is not a 'catchy' thread, it stays relevant, current, and with a bunch of work, available for any who need to find a RESOURCE in this vast internet sea of information. I hope to find some time this summer to better organize it so we improve our assistance capabilities in the future.
