The Sponsor Program pairs cadets with families who provide support, friendship and learning beyond the Academy environment as well as the comforts of a home away from home. The program is structured to give cadets exposure to the local area and, when possible, to a different view of the unique military community. This helps make cadets’ integration into the military easier and more effective. Families can provide a relaxed alternative to campus life. The time commitment and contact between cadet sponsor family and cadet are individual choices.
