Anchored 4 Life is a program sponsored by the Department of Defense. It provides training and resources for leadership & life challenges for students & families. We are here for support!

Support

• Life Changes- A4L Adult Staff & Team Leaders can meet with students who are experiencing big life changes. We have kits for the following issues: 
  • Welcome- Any new student in your room can be welcomed and given a kit. 
  • Moving- Any student who is moving away can be given a kit. Please let us know a week in advance because there is a goodbye page for your other students to sign.  
  • Deployment- These kits are for students with a military-employed parent who is leaving for an extended deployment. We typically only give these once and then add a scarf for each additional deployment.
  • Coming Home- These kits are for students whose deployed parents have returned.
  • Divorce- Any student experiencing a divorce in their home can meet with an adult A4L member to talk and get a kit with help & processing ideas.
  • Grief- Any student who has experienced a loss in their home can meet with an adult A4L member to talk and get a kit with help & processing ideas.
• Leadership- Team Leaders & Crew Members are being trained to help with playground mediation, bullying, and making friends. They will be available during recess times.
