Welcome To the United States Marine Corps Personal and Family Readiness Division web site, the home of Marine Corps Community Services (MCCS) on the World Wide Web.

MCCS exists to serve Marines and their families wherever they are stationed. Every day, throughout their careers and into retirement, MCCS programs and services provide for basic life needs, such as food and clothing; social and recreational needs; and even prevention and intervention programs to combat societal ills that inhibit positive development and growth.

I invite you to tour our site and learn more about MCCS and what we are doing to serve and support Marines and their families every day. The site provides information on all MCCS programs and services. MCCS is organized around the following primary support pillars:
  • Board of Directors
  • MR Counsel: Employing the highest standards of professional, moral and ethical conduct, provide the entire spectrum of quality Navy Office of General Counsel attorney legal services to assist MCCS staff and personnel.

  • Marine Corps Family Team Building: Programs and services designed to strengthen and support families and family life.

  • Semper Fit: More than sports, the ultimate health and fitness club promoting fitness, wellness, and healthy living.

  • Personal Services: Self-directed or intervention services for single Marines and married Marines and their families promoting responsible living, good citizenship, and prevention of problems before they occur.

  • Business Operations: Exchanges, services, food and hospitality, lodging, and recreational business programs offer Marines and families goods and services at low prices, returning profits which enhance recreation and support facility construction and renovation.

  • General Support: Personnel, Financial, Information Technology, and other services that provide "best-in-class" support to MCCS programs at Marine Corps installations around the world. 

We appreciate your dropping by, and hope you enjoy your visit.
