CSF - What is it? What is it not?
Army G-3/5/7
CSF is…
“A structured, long term assessment and
development program to build the resilience and
enhance the performance of every Soldier, Family
member and DA civilian.”
Gen George Casey, CSA
CSF is not…
 Not just another mandatory training requirement
 Not a “screen” for any physical or psychological disease or
dysfunction, including suicide
 Not something we “do” after a Soldier, Family member, or DA Civilian
has a negative psychological, physical, social, or professional outcome
