Thrive

Overview

The Thrive Initiative is a collaboration between the Defense Department’s Office of the Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Military Community and Family Policy and the Clearinghouse for Military Family Readiness at Penn State. The aim of Thrive is to create a series of developmentally comprehensive, evidence-informed, universal and targeted parenting programs for military and civilian families that is affordable with respect to training and implementation costs. The Thrive Initiative seeks to harness parents’ potential for fostering holistic, community youth development and resiliency throughout childhood and adolescence by focusing on practices and strategies that help to nurture the parent-child relationship and foster positive child development outcomes.
