Personal Financial Readiness (PFR)
The mission of the Personal Financial Readiness Program is to provide quality financial education, information, and counseling to equip our Forces to address current personal financial situations, maximize financial resources, and effectively handle financial challenges that may arise throughout the Military lifecycle. Our vast array of services are offered to all DoD ID Cardholders (Active, Guard, and Reserve Military, Retired Military, DoD Civilians, Veterans, Contractors, and their Families).
Per DoDI 1344.07/DAFI 36-2925, para 6.7.1 and 6.7.1.1: The Military and Family Readiness Center is the base level office of primary responsibility (OPR) for financial education on Air Force installations. Under no circumstances shall commercial agents, including representatives of loan, finance, insurance, or investment companies, be used for this purpose.
