Notice of Proposed Rule

DEPARTMENT OF MILITARY AFFAIRS

Chapter:

Florida Armed Forces Reserve Family Readiness Program Application Fund

Overview

RULE:

70-1.001

Florida Armed Forces Reserve Family Readiness Program Application Fund

PURPOSE:

The purpose of the proposed rule is to establish an application form to be used by all applicants requesting assistance from the Family Readiness Program, with the effect of ensuring that all applications for assistance are processed using one standardized format. This will facilitate rapid review of the application, and minimize processing delays caused by incomplete information being provided by the applicant.

SUMMARY:

Section 250.5206, Florida Statutes (Family Readiness Program), establishes a need-based assistance program for the purpose of providing financial assistance to the families of eligible Servicemembers of the Florida National Guard, United States Reserves Forces, and Coast Guard Reserves. Families are eligible to request assistance while Servicemembers are federally deployed and serving in the Global War on Terrorism, or participating in state operations for homeland defense, and for 120 days after the Servicemember is released from qualifying service. The proposed rule provides a uniform application form that clearly delineates all information needed to process the request for assistance to completion.
