.:SMP Marine Corps Order:.

In keeping with Marine Corps tradition, the responsibility and leadership opportunities offered to Marines are extended to those who make up the largest percentage of the Marine Corps.

The Single Marine Program (SMP) was established to provide a forum for Marines to identify quality of life ideas and issues and recommend solutions, after all, change starts from the bottom up. Through participation in the planning and coordination of programs Marines have a direct influence in the execution of programs and activities.

Activities and events are as varied as the Marines the program serves. Activities typically fall under one of five program components: recreation, life skills, career progression, health and wellness, and community involvement. In addition, single Marines contribute tens of thousands of community service hours each year.
