Service members trying to keep their child’s mind sharp during pandemic can receive help from the Airman and Family Readiness (A&FR) unit.  A new free resource offered is access to tutor.com, which provides on-demand access to academic support for students from Kindergarten to college.

“With the temporary program expansion, online tutoring and homework help via https://military.tutor.com/home is now available at no cost to any adult or child in a DoD civilian or Active Duty, National Guard, Reserve or Wounded Warrior military family,” said Mandie Holovach, Airman and Family Readiness Programs specialist.

A&FR also provides personal finance and career coaching for Reservists and others struggling during the crisis. “The local A&FRC or A&FR office can assist with reviewing resumes and providing feedback to improve resume for those seeking employment,” said Holovach.
