Volunteers are trained to provide a

wide range of assistance, from

emotional support to basic, simple

tasks (screening calls and visitors,

caring for children/pets, minor

housekeeping, etc.) that may be

difficult for the family to focus on

during this time.

CRT teams convey a criti-

cal message to the spouse

and family…

that people care…. that

the Army cares.

Caring for our families during their

darkest hours of need….

The concept behind CRT teams is to

provide a team of caring and

trained volunteers that can

immediately “be there” for a spouse

and family after notification of a

death or serious injury.

CRT volunteers are carefully

screened and selected by the

Rear Detachment Commanders.

General criteria include: Maturity,

Life Experience, Emotional Stability,

Discreetness, Availability

(upon need).
