Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Morale, Welfare, and Recreation (MWR) programs and services are considered an integral part of resilient and ready Airmen and families. However, the Air Force currently lacks an evidence-informed evaluation framework for MWR programs, especially one that identifies short-term and intermediate outcomes that contribute to Airman and family resilience and readiness. A necessary first step in determining the possible impact of the MWR portfolio is to identify, and then assess, the contributions of each individual program or service. To understand the ways that MWR programs can contribute to resilience and readiness, the Air Force asked RAND researchers to develop an evidence-informed framework that links program and service activities to such outcomes and provides guidance on collecting and managing the data needed to measure those outcomes. To accomplish this, the authors developed a model of resilience and readiness building blocks-that is, precursors to overall resilience and readiness identified through a review of existing literature. They then used this model as the basis for comparing the building blocks and short-term and intermediate outcomes targeted by programs and services within the MWR portfolio. Together, these two efforts allow the Air Force to examine whether and how the MWR portfolio could be used to foster resilience and readiness across the total force. The report concludes with a discussion of next steps that the Air Force can take to move closer to evaluating the capabilities of the MWR portfolio with respect to enhancing Airman and family resilience and readiness.

This book was released on 1987 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study was initiated by the special Air Force study team established by Headquarters, United States Air Force, to review the Morale, Welfare, and Recreation (MWR) program administered worldwide by Air Force commanders. The study team asked the Analysis Division, Directorate of Personnel Plans, Deputy Chief of Staff, Personnel, Headquarters, United States Air Force, to support the study with analyses of the current MWR program, of the environment in which MWR programs operate, and of the operational issues which have focused the current attention of decision-makers, within and external to the United States Air Force, on MWR program. The MWR program is not a stand- alone program. It represents an institutionally ingrained component of the Air Force's effort to sustain a high degree of readiness and retention. MWR activities are key factors which help to demonstrate Air Force leadership's genuine concern for the welfare of service members and their families. Properly resourced and applied, the MWR program affects the servicemembers aspirations and motivations, sense of pride, and sense of belonging. The goals of MWR program are implemented through diverse activities that provide community and family services, support a strong degree of physical fitness though individual and team-oriented functions, foster social gatherings and events, and sponsor recreational activities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This final overarching report in a series documents research and recommendations RAND offered to the Air Force to help strengthen the development of a new office responsible for monitoring and promoting resilience among Air Force Airmen, civilian employees, and Air Force families. Efforts to boost resilience have become an important military response to suicide and other markers of distress and poor health. The report reviews the concepts and measures of resilience, resilience factors, hardiness and flourishing. It describes how resilience and the military's Total Force Fitness concepts are related. The report brings together highlights from the eight companion reports on each Total Force Fitness domain and characterizes types of Air Force data that could be used to track resilience."-- Provided on the publisher's website.
