LifeSkills Training and Education

LifeSkills Training and Education offers various workshops in such areas as parenting, financial management, stress and anger management, and understanding personality differences. In addition to these workshops, the following opportunities are offered as part of the LifeSkills program:

Spouses' Learning Series (SLS)

SLS provides Marines and families the opportunity to further their personal and professional growth through a series of on-line courses and workshops that include annual Motivational Workshops for spouses and Marines, and semi-annual Leadership Skills workshops.

Prevention and Relationship Enhancement Program (PREP)

PREP is a relationship enhancement program that teaches couples how to effectively communicate, work together as a team to solve problems, manage conflict without damaging closeness, and preserve and enhance commitment and friendship. It is designed for premarital and married couples, whether distressed or not. PREP is not therapy; it is an educational and practical application opportunity to learn what works in a relationship.

Chaplains Religious Enrichment Development Operation (CREDO)

CREDO programs offer a variety of opportunities for personal and spiritual growth to assist Marines and their families in developing the resources necessary to excel in Marine Corps life. Retreats include Marriage Enrichment, Personal Growth, Spiritual Growth, Family Retreats, and Unit Ministry Retreats/Warrior Transition.
