(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 is based on leading evidenced-based family intervention models for at-risk families and has been shown to have positive emotional, behavioral and adaptive outcomes for families. FOCUS was originally developed at the UCLA Semel Institute for Neuroscience and Human Behavior and the National Center for Child Traumatic Stress (NCCTS).
