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.
