The organization that does so much to help Soldiers and their families is now in need of help.
Army Community Service, which houses a number of assistive programs and services, relies on volunteers to keep operations running smoothly.
Jeannie Johnston, ACS division chief, said the most critical need is in âinformation referralâ at the front desk, where volunteers greet visitors at the office on Aerobee Road, and answer the phone.

The correlation between extractive industry construction like pipeline projects and sex trafficking is well-documented. Temporary housing communities for the labor force building the pipelines, often called man camps, result in a temporary population boom in often-rural areas. These create a strain on the area s social infrastructure and can stretch police services thin if crimes occur.
