The Guam Army National Guard held the 30-Day Yellow Ribbon Reintegration Program at the Hyatt Sandcastle, Saipan, on March 22, 2014, with CNMI soldiers and their families.
Facilitators were flown in from Guam and local agencies such as the American Red Cross NMI Chapter and Veterans Affairs provided vital resources to soldiers and their families.
The intent of this event was to help service members and their families reconnect after deployment, provide information about resources that can help reduce the stressors associated with a long separation, and educate service members and their families about the benefits they have earned as a result of their deployment and how to access those benefits. This was also an opportunity to welcome service members home.
Others in attendance were Rep. Mariano Taitano, Rep. Lorenzo Deleon Guerrero, Delegate Gregorio Kilili C. Sablan, and Associate Judge David A. Wiseman. (PR)
