RecOn (R4R) Discounts

Recharge for Resiliency (R4R) is the capstone for resiliency programming across the Air Force for FSS MWR activities. R4R encompasses the following key resiliency target audiences: the Single Airman Programming Initiative (SAPI), RecOn, and Deployed Affected Programming (DAP). 
These resiliency programs target specific audiences and provide needed support for our Airmen and their families. ODR operates using the ‘RecOn’ branch of the program.
