Deployment Readiness

Preparing to deploy? You'll want to be as informed as possible about what is going to happen.

Although YPG does not deploy, YPG has a mobilization/deployment program. Classes are offered based on need and one-on-one and tailored to your needs. When the ARNG is activated, Service Members and their Families are provided briefings and waiting Family classes. Waiting Families moving to the area due to deployments are also offered the same assistance.

What is offered?
ACS Briefings.
Waiting Family Classes (geared towards the need of the families and/or Family Readiness Group). Scrapbooking Classes/Workshops have been held in the past.
