Editor's Notes
- The Marine For Life (M4L) Program is refocusing its priority on its mission of assisting Transitioning Marines (TMs), which includes providing a network of resources that include information and opportunities regarding employment, education, mentoring and other needs that TMs may require. Working with the resources that the Wounded Warrior Regiment (WWR) provides, M4L is furthering relationships with corporations having national coverage, Veteran Service Organizations, mentoring organizations and individuals desiring to hire and assist TMs. . M4L and its nationwide Hometown Link (HTL) network continue to assist TMs who log-on to the M4L Website, or utilize the toll-free number. In addition, HTLs remain poised to support the WWR on both urgent and routine injured support missions and remain a unique Marine-to-Marine reach into Hometown, USA. Additionally, HTLs continue to engage local civic and Marine-friendly organizations to share the M4L message and gather appropriate mentors.
- Based on a detailed analysis of data on transitioning Marines, we organized the country into 4 Districts or Regions to ensure a balanced span of control in our networking efforts. Each Region has a senior Rep who provides oversight on all IMA activities throughout the region. Each region can contain anywhere from 15-25 individual M4L Reps. Right now each region is being overseen by a mobilized LtCol/Maj. But mobilization money will be gone by Oct 2014 and these senior position will be returned to a drilling status. In order to ensure continuity, a full-time civilian is being hired to provide day-to-day management of regional activities. These Regional Network Coordinators will be located at the four locations noted on the map. They will work for the M4L Network Director at Quantico but will be in direct support of the Regional M4L Rep (LtCol) and the other Reps in the region. (In effect they will serve in an I&I type role.)
