The overall goals for Guam FS360° are promoted by regular Community Partner meetings. Recipients of services from military families with children with disabilities, and providers of services have been meeting quarterly since February of 2009. Those who serve military families, and those served are invited to gather at the Guam FS360° One Stop Center, to build relationships. Representatives from DODEA, military medical facilities, and service providers from the Guam community are invited to gather and discuss topics of interest. Families’ needs are discussed, and their input is used when planning project events and activities. Meetings with Community Partners have provided the program with direction for service implementation.

Meeting regularly gives program staff and management the opportunity to report on progress, including how many families have been served, and plans for future events and activities.

Current and past partners include:

• Military parents with children with disabilities
• Guam Developmental Disabilities Council
• Parent Information Resource Center (PIRC)
• DODEA schools
• Military Medical facility representatives
• Guam Legal Services Corporation-Disability Law Center
