We have Lathrop military families that are serving on active-duty at Eielson AFB and Fort Wainwright, AK Air Guard, AK National Guard,  DoD personnel, AAFES, and Military Retirees!

School Military Family Life Counselor (MFLC)

The Department of Defense has provided a Military Family Life Counselor (MFLC) at Lathrop High School.
The School MFLC provides brief, solution-focused, non-medical counseling to active military and their families.

  • The School MFLC is a licensed clinician.
  • Interactions with your teen and/or family are kept in the strictest confidence.
  • No records are kept.
  • If you are interested in learning more about the program, call the School MFLC directly at (907) 406-9422.

A Parent/Legal Guardian Acknowledgement And Consent Letter For Child And Youth Behavioral Military And Family Life Counseling Services must be signed prior to the school MFLC working with any teen directly. The acknowledgement can be printed off, be available from the School MFLC, or can be acquired at the school counseling office. Signing this acknowledgement signifies that the parent has read the information regarding the services that the School MFLC provides and gives the MFLC permission to interact with their teen should a need arise for support.

School MFLC phone: (907) 406-9422
