Naval Support Activity Hampton Roads supports a dispersed command community. Its Norfolk headquarters and its annexes are different workplaces, with reporting determined by the assigned organization. [2]
The Norfolk headquarters uses the Blandy Road address. Northwest Annex is in Chesapeake; Portsmouth Annex and the separately named NSA Portsmouth should not be treated as interchangeable. [1]

Life around your next station
Moving & living.
Start with your sponsor and the installation’s official newcomer resources. Confirm the arrangements that apply to your household before you travel.
Arrange access with the sponsor
Check the actual gate and visitor process before arrival. An airport terminal, lodging reservation or map pin does not grant military access.
Official installation resourcesSet up housing support
Use the Navy regional Housing Service Center for referral and application support. Establish the actual duty destination before evaluating community housing.
Housing resourcesBook the correct temporary accommodation
Confirm the current regional lodging property and authorized booking. A Hampton Roads listing may be far from the actual command.
Temporary lodgingPlan the school transfer
Use the school liaison to identify enrollment, records and district questions for the intended home address. A duty-station assignment does not select the school.
School liaisonArrange child care early
Contact the child-care resource office early. Ask about eligibility, the request process and care covering your actual duty schedule; a request is not a confirmed placement.
Child-care resourcesConfirm enrollment and clinic location
Use the assigned clinic and enrolled provider’s current directions. Confirm any Portsmouth hospital or branch-clinic appointment separately.
Medical resourcesConnect with family support
Use the listed readiness office for relocation and household referrals. Confirm which programs serve your service, duty status and family circumstances.

Where should I report first?

Can I assume a temporary room is reserved?
No. Confirm a reservation and authorized travel arrangements before arrival.
Which school will my child attend?
Ask the receiving district and school liaison about the intended residential address.
How should we arrange medical care?
