Term
| Describe Category A: Mission Sustaining Programs |
|
Definition
Considered essential to sustaining readiness, these programs generally enhance and promote the physical and mental
well being of Soldiers. Programs in this category have little or no capacity for generating NAF income and are
supported almost entirely with APFs |
|
|
Term
| Describe Category B: Community Support Programs |
|
Definition
These programs are closely related, in terms of supporting the military mission, to those grouped in category A. They
satisfy the basic physiological and psychological needs of Soldiers and their Families and provide, to the extent
possible, the community support systems that make military garrisons temporary hometowns for a mobile military
population. These support programs will receive substantial amounts of APF support, but differ from those programs in
category A, in part because of their ability to generate NAF revenues. That ability to generate revenues is limited,
however, and in no case may they be sustained without substantial APF support. |
|
|
Term
| Describe Category C: Revenue Generating Programs |
|
Definition
These programs have less impact on readiness. They offer desirable social and recreational opportunities. Programs in
this category have the capability of generating enough income to cover most of their operating expenses, but they lack
the ability to sustain themselves based purely on their business activity; consequently, they receive limited APF
support. Chapter 5 addresses funding for category C MWR programs located at remote and isolated sites, funding for
base closures, and funding as a result of special security conditions. |
