State Consultants Offer Local Support

Need to connect with financial, health, employment, food security or other services in your local community? Military OneSource’s state consultants bring help directly to you, offering outreach services to support the military community when and where they need it most.

While many Military OneSource services are easily accessed with just a phone call or a click, state consultants can help if you need more in-depth information or support in your own backyard.

What state consultants do

State consultants operate in every state, Puerto Rico, Guam and the U.S. Virgin Islands. They work with service members, families, military leadership, and military and civilian service providers to make sure the needs of the military community are met. State consultants:

• Provide need-based information and referral services to improve the quality of life and readiness of service members, their families and survivors. This includes referrals to resources that address food and economic security.
• Educate service members, their families and survivors on Military OneSource resources and services through small-group informational sessions, which can be held in collaboration with other service providers.
• Develop and execute state support plans to ensure broad awareness of Military OneSource and its resources including financial, behavioral health, education, employment, health and wellness, and support for deployment and military life.
• Network with local service providers to raise understanding of the military community’s needs.
• Support local events with presentations and resource tables to educate on the services available through the Military OneSource call center and website.

How state consultants provide local support

State consultants provide information about Military OneSource’s services in many ways:

• Event support such as deployment events, family days or other large-group activities for service and family members.
• Presentations at community meetings such as Joining Community Forces.
• Webinars for service providers, service members and/or family members.
• Small-group meetings of fewer than 50 service and/or family members in person or virtual. This is great for an in-depth look at a specific topic.

Who is eligible to receive outreach services?

Outreach services support service members, their families, survivors and military leaders from all branches and components, as well as military and civilian service providers working within the military population.
