    The FOCUS Program


    FOCUS (Families OverComing Under Stress) is a resiliency-building program designed for military families and children facing the multiple challenges of combat operational stress during wartime. FOCUS promotes family strengths and supports parents to help manage the challenges of military life. FOCUS was developed at the UCLA Semel Institute for Neuroscience and Human Behavior in collaboration with the National Center for Child Traumatic Stress and Childrens Hospital Boston/ Harvard Medical School.

    **Parents are highly encouraged to join this group so that the skills learned are brought back to the home setting. This is an opportunity for hands-on training with your child. Practice makes for success!

    "If a community values the children, it must cherish their parents." -Bowlby
