Can I be forced to have a family care plan if I do not fall into a FCP category?
AR 600-20 outlines specifically who is required to have a Family Care Plan. It also states in AR 600-20 paragraph 5-3 i states: All married Soldiers who have Family members are encouraged to complete and maintain a Family care plan, even if not specifically required to do so by this regulation. To do so assists the spouse, commander, rear detachment commander, Family assistance center, or next of kin providing care for dependent Family members in the event the spouse is injured, ill, incapacitated, or otherwise unable to provide care for the dependent Family member. Counseling of such is also encouraged.
