Mission
---------------------------------------------------------------------

Counseling Services supports the Marine Corps mission by positively impacting:

  • Mission Readiness:
    Preventing or alleviating stress factors enable Marines to focus on their duties. Strengthening individual coping skills and enhancing self-esteem can lead to improved job performance.
  • Retention:
    Reducing stressors within the military lifestyle can influence a service member's decision to stay in the Marine Corps. Providing services to family members enables them to adjust and accept the challenges of Marine family life.
  • Quality of Life:
    Counseling Services supports the Marine Corps philosophy of "taking care of its own." The ability to cope and problem solve is key to quality of life issues.

    2. To increase clients' competence and confidence in their abilities to handle Marine Corps lifestyle stressors.
    3. To ensure personal and family issues do not distract from operational readiness.
