use their regularly scheduled childcare programs
due to unexpected emergencies, medical
emergencies, family illness, a family emergency
or an unexpected duty requirement for extended
hours. Military families with employed spouses,
single parents, and dual military families are
eligible when an emergency is verified and no
other options for childcare services are
