This regulation prescribes policies and procedures that govern establishing, operating, controlling, and dissolving Department of Defense (DOD) and Army civilian nonappropriated fund instrumentalities (NFAIs). Civilian NAFIs are a function of the Department of the Army (DA) that financially support morale, welfare, and recreation (MWR) programs dedicated for DOD employees, as authorized by DOD Directive (DODD) 1015.1, DOD Instruction (DODI) 1015.2, and DODD 1015.8. These programs and activities provide employee food and other resale, recreation, and welfare services, thereby enchancing the quality of worklife at DOD installations.
