WHETHER ENDURING PHYSICAL WOUNDS OR THE EMOTIONAL WOUNDS OF PTS/TBI, MARINE PARTICIPANTS ARE GIVEN THE TOOLS TO HELP THEM REBUILD REWARDING AND MEANINGFUL LIVES. DURING THE WEEK AT FOCUS, PARTICIPANTS (APPROXIMATELY 28 PER CLASS) ATTEND AN INTENSE, INTROSPECTIVE THREE-DAY WORKSHOP TO UNDERSTAND AND PURGE NEGATIVE TENDENCIES AND TO ACCEPT AND SUCCESSFULLY ADJUST TO THE CHALLENGES OF CIVILIAN LIFE. THE COURSE INCLUDES A HOST OF SUPERB MOTIVATIONAL SPEAKERS THAT ENCOURAGE PARTICIPANTS TO RISE ABOVE ANY CHALLENGE, REJECT VICTIMIZATION, ADOPT POSITIVE HABITS, AND TO BE THE BEST THAT THEY CAN BE. THE COURSE FURTHER ALLOWS MARINES TO EXPLORE AND ENHANCE THEIR INTERPERSONAL SKILLS, ESPECIALLY AS IT RELATES TO THEIR FAMILY. THEY COME TO REALIZE THAT THEY ARE NOT ALONE IN THEIR CHALLENGES AND THAT THERE IS A VAST SUPPORTING NETWORK COMPOSED OF BROTHER MARINES, FAMILY, FRIENDS, AND A CONCERNED CITIZENRY. PARTICIPANTS ARE ENCOURAGED TO LEAVE THEIR COMFORT ZONE AND TO SET AND REALIZE THE GOALS TO WHICH THEY ASPIRE. DURING THE WEEK, PARTICIPANTS EXPERIENCE RENEWED HOPE AND DIRECTION, DEVELOP POSITIVE CHARACTERISTICS, EXPERIENCE ENHANCED SELF-WORTH, AND ARE COMMITTED TO THEMSELVES AND THEIR FAMILIES. 77880 MENTORING: DURING EACH FOCUS PROGRAM, SELECT PARTICIPANTS FROM PREVIOUS COURSES ARE BROUGHT ON SITE TO MENTOR AND ENCOURAGE CURRENT PARTICIPANTS.

FOCUS ALSO REACHES OUT TO PAST PARTICIPANTS IN TIMES OF NEED TO ASSIST THEM IN THEIR JOURNEY FROM THE BATTLEFIELD TO CIVILIAN LIFE. THE MENTORING PROCESS IS A DYNAMIC, INTIMATE, AND IMPORTANT ELEMENT IN THE SUCCESS OF FOCUS. 356701 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 16 0 1 4 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 16 13 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 X TIMOTHY L SIMS 3142434140 PO BOX 476 BALLWIN MO 63022 CHARLES SCOTT DIRECTOR 7.00 X 0 0 0 MICKEY DRAKE DIRECTOR 7.00 X 0 0 0 TOM FISCHER DIRECTOR 5.00 X 0 0 0 TOM ILGES DIRECTOR 7.00 X 0 0 0 WENDELL WEBB DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 COTTRELL FOX DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 JACK QUINN DIRECTOR 3.00 X 0 0 0 WADE SCHOTT DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 DENNIS SIMPSON PRESIDENT 8.00 X X 0 0 0 TIM SIMS TREASURER 5.00 X X 0 0 0 JOHN BRAUER VICE PRESIDENT 10.00 X X 0 0 0 HARRY HEGGER VICE CHAIRMAN 7.00 X X 0 0 0 WALT SUHRE CHAIRMAN 3.00 X X 0 0 0 NORM HARRIMAN VICE PRESIDENT 20.00 X X 22860 0 0 JENNIFER JEFFERSON GRADUATE PROGRAM COORDINATOR 40.00 X 51833 0 0 SHERI OBERHELMAN PROGRAM COORDINATOR 40.00 X 53940 0 0 128633 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1023536 22790 1023536 30878 30878 1042949 960780 82169 82169 82169 1136583 0 0 113047 128633 87552 41081 42357 28830 13527 13871 9732 4139 17780 17780 30323 21585 8738 6175 4596 1579 24878 18798 429 5651 19736 14013 1446 4277 39192 39192 3750 3750 14140 8442 5698 PROGRAM AND EVENT COSTS 111878 110774 1104 PRINTING AND POSTAGE 22037 9053 10 12974 DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES 1093 384 709 475843 356701 25363 93779 2690 853093 2393882 0 3466 2449 26000 23750 6000 2250 562514 2853722 2968552 3711514 8131 9502 8131 9502 X 2917921 3702012 42500 0 2960421 3702012 2968552 3711514 660740 80851 0 X 0 1 X 0 0 X 825025 1159368 861150 1563897 1023536 5432976 825025 1159368 861150 1563897 1023536 5432976 2568866 2864110 2266 5385 17872 25505 30878 81906 19698 19698 5534580 0.51750 0.59570 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 562514 1600000 152122 2314636 515804 50013 3303 562514 1.00000 0 0 16000 13750 2250 10000 10000 0 2250 1238084 80851 20650 101501 1136583 0 1136583 496493 20650 20650 475843 0 475843 FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 11B LINE 11A EXPLANATION - FORM 990 IS PREPARED BY AN INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM, REVIEWED BY THE TREASURER AND PROVIDED TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS PRIOR TO FILING.
