National Inhalants & Poisons Awareness Week Army Substance Abuse Program USAG Grafenwoehr supports National Inhalants & Poisons Awareness Week (NIPAW) 18 – 24 March: They're all over your house. They're in your child's school. In fact, you probably picked some up the last time you went to the grocery store. Educate yourself. Find out about inhalants before your children do. Most parents are in the dark regarding the popularity and dangers of inhalant use. But children are quickly discovering that common household products are inexpensive to obtain, easy to hide and the easiest way to get high. According to national surveys, inhaling dangerous products is becoming one of the most widespread problems in the country. It is as popular as marijuana with young people. More than a million people used inhalants to get high just last year. By the time a student reaches the 8th grade, one in five will have used inhalants. What is inhalant use? Inhalant use refers to the intentional breathing of gas or vapors with the purpose of reaching a high. Inhalants are legal, everyday products which have a useful purpose, but can be misused. You're probably familiar with many of these substances -- paint, glue and others. But you probably don't know that there are more than 1,000 products that are very dangerous when inhaled -- things like typewriter correction fluid, air-conditioning refrigerant, felt tip markers, spray paint, air freshener, butane and even cooking spray. Find out more by contacting Elias Barnes, Grafenwoehr, 475-8520, elias.h.barnes.civ@mail.mil or Juliann Bryant, Rose Barrack, 476-2498, juliann.l.bryant.civ@mail.mil.
Join us at our Monthly Community Huddle Thursday, 22 March: The Community Huddle is a monthly meeting for all community members to find out the latest info on programs, events, construction updates, and other important issues. Hosted by Col. James Saenz, USAG Grafenwoehr commander, the Community Huddle will be held 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. in the Multi Purpose Center, Rose Barracks Bldg. 134. There will be a rehearsal beginning at 10 a.m. that morning; all presenters are required to participate in the rehearsal. Garrison directors and subject matter experts will brief topics and answer questions.
Disability Evaluation information now available on-line Soldiers, family members and commanders can now find helpful data, phone numbers, and first-line information on how the Integrated Disability Evaluation System works for the Army in Europe at the USAREUR IDES Web site www.eur.army.mil/IDES/.
Europe and Asia were part of the final implementation phase of an improved disability evaluation process for Soldiers which began in October 2011. The new system eliminates both the requirement for veterans to navigate the Department of Veterans Affairs disability evaluation process on their own and the delay between the end of a Soldiers’ service and the beginning of their VA benefits. The IDES partners the disability rating systems of the Department of Defense and the VA to produce a disability rating system used by both departments. The IDES also features a single set of medical examinations and a single set of disability ratings, resulting in benefits that begin as soon as Soldiers separate from military service.
Department of Defense Self Service Logon information Department of Defense Self Service Logon (DS Logon) is a joint Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) and Department of Defense (DoD) initiative to provide Service Members, Veterans, Retirees, and other beneficiaries access to DoD and VA benefits. DS Logon is accepted by several VA and DoD websites, including TRICARE, My HealtheVet, myDoDBenefits, VA for Vets, and eBenefits. Depending on your status, your DS Logon account allows you to access, administer or view certain benefits including TRICARE, Group Life Insurance (SGLI) and VA Compensation, Pension, Education, Burial and Vocational Rehabilitation & Employment Benefits. Registration is a mandatory requirement for all Soldiers. website

Community Amnesty Day 10 April: The next Ammunition Supply Point #1 Community Amnesty Day for ammunition will be from 8 a.m – 2 p.m. Unit Entrance at Ammunition Supply Point #1. Simply approach the gate, let the ASP personnel know that you have amnesty, and they will take it from you. The Department of the Army and USAREUR have recognized that people may have acquired abandoned or unauthorized A&E from a variety of sources: training ranges, souvenirs from peacekeeping missions, and military artifacts found from battles waged centuries ago, just to name a few. The primary intent of this A&E when manufactured was to destroy property, kill and/or maim personnel. In untrained or unauthorized hands, these items could have catastrophic results. If these items are found in your possession, you could face disciplinary action, hence, the creation of the Amnesty Program. This program provides personnel an avenue to return A&E to government control and remain anonymous in the process. USAREUR has designated that one day each quarter be specifically set aside as a reminder of the program’s existence and to further promote safety within the community through the recovery of A&E. This program is not intended to circumvent normal ammunition turn-in procedures and cannot be used as the basis for AR 190-series investigations. How does the Amnesty process work? 1. Personnel in possession of A&E will need to transport these items to ASP 1. (Utilize Unit Entrance). 2. Once at the ASP Gate, notify the guard that you have amnesty items. 3. The guards will escort you to the amnesty turn-in point. 4. Simply leave the items in this area. The guards will then escort you out of the ASP. 5. Trained personnel will then pick up these items and process them into the ASP. That’s it. Regardless of the size, people should not touch A&E items they suspect might be unsafe for movement. Report these items to your local military police. They will then see to the removal of these items. For more about the Amnesty Program and Amnesty Day, contact the ASP # 1 QASAS office at DSN 476-3007.

Child Find: What is child-find screening? Preschool Child Find is a developmental screening for children ages 3-5 identifying children with developmental delays or other special education needs. For children under age 3 please contact EDIS at 09662-833221. What is the process? A Child Find team made up of the preschool special needs service provider, speech and language pathologists and the occupational therapist screen the children for developmental delays. These free screenings take place monthly. How does it work? Parent submits the Child Find questionnaire (which they can pick up in the office or find on the school website); they are set up with an appointment for the screening. When they come in for the screening the child must first pass a vision and hearing screen by our school nurse. Then they are screened by the team. If the child is suspected of having any delays the team will refer them for further formal evaluation. Why is it important? When learning challenges are identified at a young age, early intervention can help the child with learning tasks. If parents are interested, what do they need to do? They can go to the schools website and find the link for Child Find. Under that link is a questionnaire they need to fill out and email back to the email address provided on the form. Someone will be in contact with them within 48 hours. If they do not hear back please contact the school at 09662 832812 and let them know what happened.
