Staff
Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society is led by experienced professionals who have first-hand knowledge of the challenges military life can bring. Most of our staff are retired Sailors or Marines, or are the spouse of an active-duty member. Together, we uphold the Relief Society's vision: To be the most trusted resource to meet the emerging needs of our global community of Sailors and Marines.
Headquartered in Arlington, VA we have 213 locations across the globe—afloat and ashore. In 2025, we touched the lives of more than 211,000 Sailors, Marines, and family members, including delivering $47 million in financial assistance to 38,000.
