Elevate - Taking Relationships to the Next Level

Military Couples

Are you or your partner active-duty military, a veteran, a civilian working with the military, or otherwise connected to the military?

Military-connected couples experience many of the same challenges as other couples, along with unique demands that can place additional stress on their relationships. Deployments and separations, relocations, changing schedules, and transitions between military and civilian life can all affect how couples communicate, manage stress, and stay connected.

ELEVATE gives you and your partner practical skills and time together to strengthen your relationship and navigate life's challenges as a team.

ELEVATE can help you and your partner:

  • Better manage stress individually and as a couple
  • Stay connected during demanding or changing circumstances
  • Communicate more effectively with each other
  • Work through differences in healthy ways
  • Strengthen your friendship and commitment
  • Navigate transitions together as a team

Elevate gave us new tools and new ways of viewing things and promoted increased communication.
