Introduction: It is DoD policy that considerations in reassigning a Service member shall be based on the policy stated in reference (a) and special needs of family members shall affect reassignments overseas solely according to this Instruction. Selection of civilians for overseas positions shall not be based on those individuals having family members with special needs.
Important information for applicants with family members with special medical or educational needs: Applicants who have family members with special medical or educational needs should search for DoD Instruction 1315.19 via this link for information regarding living and working in an overseas area.
The Exceptional Family Member Program (EFMP) provides comprehensive and coordinated community support, housing, educational, medical, and personnel services to families with special needs. An exceptional family member is a child or adult dependent with any physical, emotional, developmental, or intellectual disorder that requires special treatment, therapy, education, training or counseling.
Special Needs Family Member Overseas Travel and Guidance: Applies to overseas PCS entitlements: Authorizing Special Needs Family Member Travel Overseas at Government Expense: DoD Instruction 1315.19 Section E6.2.1.3:

E6.2.1.3.2. “If an employee brings an infant or toddler (birth through age 2 years of age) to an overseas location, and that infant or toddler, but for age, is entitled to attend the DoDDS on a space-required basis under DoD Directive 1342.13, the Military Department responsible for providing early intervention services (EIS) shall ensure that the infant or toddler, if eligible for EIS under DoD Instruction 1342.12, receives the required EIS.”
E6.2.1.3.3. “If an employee brings a family member to an overseas location who requires medical or dental care, the employee will be responsible for obtaining and paying for such care.
