The Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society can provide interest-free
loans or grants to help with emergency needs such as:
- Emergency Transportation
- Funeral Expenses
- Medical/dental Bills (patient's share)
- Food, Rent, and Utilities
- Disaster Relief Assistance
- Child Care Expenses
- Essential Vehicle Repairs
- Unforeseen Family Emergencies
How to apply
- Servicemember or eligible family members who have an emergency need
should contact the nearest NMCRS location
and make an appointment to be seen by an NMCRS caseworker. Bring your
ID card and latest LES, if available, with you. If that office is closed
and the emergency is of such a nature that it cannot wait until the
next business day (e.g. death in the immediate family), the answering
machine will provide instructions for obtaining "after hours" assistance.
- When there is no NMCRS office in the area, an available Army Emergency
Relief, Air Force Aid Society, or American Red Cross Chapter Office
can process your request on behalf of the Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society.
If you need emergency assistance after
hours, please call: the American Red Cross Armed Forces Emergency Service Center at 1 (877) 272-7337
