Parent and FAMILY Support

The U.S. Naval Academy Alumni Association and Foundation’s (USNA AA&F) parent and family engagement helps all members from the time that your midshipman is admitted to the Naval Academy until they graduate.

We provide communications and engaging programs to help families stay connected.

We'd LIKE TO GET TO KNOW YOU BETTER

We kindly ask parents or guardians of USNA midshipmen to complete the brief contact form below. This form collects essential information including your midshipman's full name, gender, date of birth, and the current information about their parents or guardians. This helps us maintain accurate records and ensures we can communicate effectively when needed. Your cooperation is greatly appreciated and plays an important role in supporting your midshipman's experience.
