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.
