The goal of the Prevention, Support and Intervention Program is to enhance the social functioning and emotional well-being of CF families. Military life presents unique challenges to families, including frequent relocation and extended family separation. These challenges may require special attention to protect individuals and families who may be particularly vulnerable. The services are designed to be preventive in nature, as well as to enable individuals and families to manage crises and periods of high stress.

We offer short-term intervention and crisis support, as well as assessment and referral services. Furthermore, the program offers education and prevention services, as well as self-help groups. For more information on groups and programs being offered, please read on.
