Discover the resources available to MilFams, including for those impacted by child abuse and neglect and domestic abuse.

Relationships and parenting can be challenging at times, especially with the added stress brought on by military life. The Family Advocacy Program provides resources such as the New Parent Support Program and the Thrive online parenting program to help MilParents through each step of their parenting journey.

FAP supports individuals and couples through counseling services to help them manage stress, improve communication and develop healthier couple dynamics. The program also provides treatment for those impacted by domestic abuse and strives to ensure victim safety.
