Military Families
CWFDES is fortunate to get the support of an additional counselor through our military partnerships. Our Military Family Life Counselor can provide information on how she can support you and your family. If you would like your child to speak/work the MFLC a consent form must be completed. Consent forms can be found here. The MFLC can work with your child one on one or in small groups. Learn more about the different groups the MFLC meets with here or contact Ms. Brooks directly at the contact infomation provided above.
