The 1997 Marine Corps Morale, Welfare, and Recreation Needs Assessment

Abstract

This report summarizes the findings from the 1997 Marine Corps Morale, Welfare, and Recreation (MWR) Needs Assessment of active duty Marines stationed at 37 sites around the world. The findings from a customer survey administered to 11,422 of these Marines are summarized in several key areas, including importance ratings of the many MWR programs, and facility priorities for new construction. In addition, use of the exchange, fitness and recreation facilities/services, food and hospitality facilities/services, and various other services offered on-base (e.g., barber shop) are described. Ratings of satisfaction are also reported for all these areas, along with suggestions for improvements. Where possible, the 1997 results are compared to results obtained from a similar survey in 1994. The report contains an Executive Summary of the findings, tables of the actual results, and briefing slides of the results in the Appendix.
