AFIMSC Supports Five and Thrive
Air Force Installation and Mission Support Center
Video by Luke Allen
Nov. 7, 2022 | 6:04
The Air Force Installation and Mission Support Center and its subordinate
units deliver morale, welfare and recreation programs, activities and
infrastructure to build and sustain ready and resilient Airmen, Guardians
and families.

Many of the programs, missions and initiatives are closely associated with
the Five and Thrive initiative that launched in 2021.

The initiative, developed by Sharene Brown, wife of Air Force Chief of Staff
Gen. CQ Brown, Jr., and a diverse group of spouses on her Thrive Team,
increases focus and attention on the top five quality of life challenges
military families face.

The challenges - childcare, education, healthcare, housing and spouse
employment - are directly tied to military family readiness, resilience and
retention of the force, as are numerous supporting pillars such as the
Airman's Attic, exchange stores, commissaries, fitness centers, libraries,
legal assistance and sexual assault response coordinators. More
