The Family Readiness Groupis an Army program that helps with the families of deployed soldiers. It also helps families of soldiers that are away on extended trainings and such. They are truley awesome. The group is generally run by ladies (not always but it is common). I have known FRG members that have been able to mow yards (if the hubby is deployed), offer babysitting, put together newborn baskets (of diapers, wipes,etc to new mothers) and of course have outings and fun cookouts. This is a strictly voluntary group and it helps sooo many service members and their families. I'm sure the other military branches have something similar, but this is what we do. :)
