FOCUS, or Families OverComing Under Stress

FOCUS, or Families OverComing Under Stress, provides resilience training to military children, families and couples.

FOCUS teaches practical skills to help families and couples overcome common challenges related to a military life. It helps build on current strengths and teach new strategies to enhance communication and problem solving, goal setting and creating a shared family story.

The FOCUS website provides more information on the program, program benefits, a description of how the program works, how to find a FOCUS site and additional resources.

Additionally, FOCUS On the Go!, an app for free download, is a great way to access the skills taught in FOCUS — from anywhere. The app has games to help children understand feeling words, problem solving and telling their stories. You can find a link to it on the website.
