What is the PFM Program?

Combat Financial Readiness
Mission readiness is the primary objective of the Marine Corps and is impacted by the financial responsibility of the servicemembers and their families. Marines and their families prosper when they are in control of their current finances and able to put money away for the future. Marines and their families can benefit from the financial advise from Personal Financial Specialists at your local MCCS Marine & Family Services.
