Launched in January 2005, MilitaryHOMEFRONT serves as the military's central, trusted and up-to-date source for Service members and their families to obtain information about all DoD QoL programs and services. Visitors to the site can browse job openings, read e-newsletters, participate in online discussion forums, review legislation and policies, read from the QoL Library and investigate many other useful areas of information.
Now, visitors to the site have several new ways to search and view information including: content-specific search tabs broken out by areas of interest, such as military installation community directories, news feeds, jobs and QoL Web search; keyword matching, which searches and returns tailored information from the QoL glossary based on a simple keyword entry; and cluster navigation, which presents results by topic and by agency.
"The new site provides streamlined access and improved navigation to help visitors get what they need from the plethora of available information as quickly as possible. With new search functionality available on the portal, we are confident that we can deliver on our promise to enhance the quality of life for the total force and support current military members, their families and retirees," said Lieutenant Colonel Ramon Lao, information technology center program manager, Office of the Deputy Under Secretary of Defense, Military Community & Family Policy.
