USS Scout Ombudsman:  

Dorothy Campbell

When you have a problem and are not sure what to do or where to go...contact your OMBUDSMAN. As an official representative of Navy families, the OMBUDSMAN plays a vital role in establishing and maintaining good communications between the ship and the families of personnel assigned to the that ship. The OMBUDSMAN, however, is NOT a go-between the Navy sponsor and their command or a go-between husband and wife. The Navy chain of command should be utilized to address problems between the sponsor and the command. There are many recognized agencies offering professional guidance in the area of personal relationships, such as the Navy Family Service Center.
