The Program
Revised: March 18, 2010
The FOCUS ProgramFOCUS (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 Children’s Hospital Boston/
Harvard Medical School.
Deployments affect both the service
member and the family as routines
and roles are disrupted. Children may
experience challenges before, during
and after a parent’s deployment.
EMPOWERING INDIVIDUALS, MAXIMIZING PERSONAL GROWTH
What is AFTB?
Army Family Team Building is a

ness which enhances overall
Army readiness and helps our
