The Community Defense Liaison Office understands that military relocations to and from Guam present unique challenges and opportunities for both service members and the local community. While the CDLO primarily focuses on the interface between the civilian government and the military as a whole, we aim to provide a bridge of information and resources for relocating military families and personnel.
We work to:
- Provide Context:Offer insights into Guam's unique cultural landscape, local customs, and community dynamics to assist military personnel and their families in their transition.
- Facilitate Connections:Help military families connect with local community resources, schools, and organizations to ease their integration into island life.
- Address Community Impacts:Serve as a point of contact for the community regarding the broader impacts of military relocations on infrastructure, housing, and public services.
Please Note: For direct, comprehensive relocation assistance specifically designed for military personnel and their families, we strongly recommend contacting the following official military resources:
- Joint Region Marianas (JRM) Fleet and Family Support Center:Provides a wide range of services including relocation assistance programs, loaner kits, welcome aboard packages, and workshops on moving, housing, and cultural adaptation.
- Phone: (671) 333-2056/2057 (Naval Base Guam)

- Military OneSource:A comprehensive DoD-funded program offering information and resources on all aspects of military life, including PCS planning, education, and family support.
