Family Readiness at Blount Island

Unit, Personal & Family Readiness

Blount Island Command's dedicated unit readiness coordinators support and empower service member and government civilian families, ensuring you have the skills and resources to navigate military life with confidence. Marine Corps family readiness programs are designed with you in mind, offering assistance and answers to help you tackle any challenges that come your way.

Marine Corps Support Facility Blount Island is truly unique—an industrial, secure facility nestled beside Florida's largest container port and one of the nation's busiest vehicle-handling ports. While our facility doesn't offer on-site housing, you'll find comfortable family accommodations at nearby Naval bases. There, you'll also enjoy access to Navy exchanges, commissaries and Fleet and Family Service Centers, providing many of the same programs as Marine Corps Community Services.

We're not just a command; we're a community dedicated to supporting you and your family. The Blount Island Command Family Readiness Program includes the commanding officer, command team advisors, family readiness advisors and unit readiness coordinators. Family members may volunteer for the team by sending an email to smbbicfro@usmc.mil or calling 904-696-5183.

For more information, contact Blount Island Command unit readiness coordinators Sgt. Tatiana Corbeil at tatiana.corbeil@usmc.mil or 904-696-5183 and Sgt. Aurora Johnson, aurora.johnson@usmc.mil, 904-696-3610.
