Navy Family Ombudsmen are the liaisons and communication links between the command leadership and the command families. We act as the Commanding Officer’s representatives, providing information and support to our outstanding Navy families. The Ombudsman Code of Ethics guarantees professionalism and confidentiality, as set forth within our program guidelines. Please be advised that in the event of
child abuse or neglect, spouse abuse, potential su***de risks, or any other life endangering situations we are mandated to report these to the proper authority. As a command ombudsmen, I am a volunteer, command-appointed spouse that has received specialized training to assist you in any situation. As a Navy spouse I know and understand the hardships of serving as a Navy family, and I offer a wealth of resources to educate you on what the Navy has to offer. Contacting the ombudsmen is the first step in discovering the large network of support and assistance that is available. I am available to you 24 hours a day, but ask you to reserve “middle of the night” calls for emergencies only. Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions or concerns.
