Hawaii National Guard is Committed to Helping the Families of All Its Members

Embracing and reassuring Survivors that they are continually linked to the Army Family through a unified support program that enables them to remain an important part of the Army for as long as they desire. SOS provides long-term support, resources and emotional connections. SOS is available to all Survivors--spouses, children, parents, siblings, and friends--grieving the loss of a Soldier, regardless of how the soldier died. SOS coordinates with Military, Non-Governmental Organizations and the local community to create a support network. All Army; Active, Guard, and Reserve component and Other Military Branch Survivors are eligible under the SOS Program.

In order to provide continued support and better understand the concerns and experiences of our Surviving Families of the Fallen, we reach out to Families through support care meetings, phone calls, and letters to capture those concerns and experiences to assist our service delivery.
