Military and Family Life Counseling
Military and Family Life Counseling
Students of active duty and recently separated military families can receive extra support in our schools.
The Military and Family Life Counseling Program (MFLC) provides confidential, non-medical, short-term, counseling services. The non-medical counseling approach is psychoeducational, which helps participants learn to anticipate and resolve challenges associated with the military life.
Eligible students at any school can access these services. To access MFLC services, please return parent consent form to the MFLC at your child's school (link below); or reach out to the MFLC(s) directly at the corresponding number below. For additional questions, please contact MFLC Supervisor, Valli Rebsamen, at (571) 621-8948.
