Fort Drum Health Promotion

The Fort Drum Health Promotion office is overseen by the Health Promotion Officer, who is assisted by the Health Promotion Research Assistant. Our current initiative is to support the Comprehensive Soldier Fitness (CSF) Program. CSF uses individual assessments, tailored virtual training, classroom training and embedded resilience experts to provide critical skills to our Soldiers, Family members a

nd Army Civilians. Improved performance and readiness build confidence to lead, courage to stand up for one's beliefs and compassion to help others. CSF is about maximizing one's potential. With that in mind, the Health Promotion Office supports the Five Pillars of Resiliency:

1. Physical Resiliency- performing and excelling in physical activities that require aerobic fitness, endurance, strength, healthy body composition and flexibility derived through exercise, nutrition and training.
2. Emotional Resiliency- approaching life's challenges in a positive, optimistic way by demonstrating self-control, stamina and good character with your choices and actions.
3. Social Resiliency- developing and maintaining trusted, valued relationships and friendships that are personally fulfilling and foster good communication including a comfortable exchange of ideas, views and experiences.
4. Family Resiliency- being part of a family unit that is safe, supportive and loving, and provides the resources needed for all members to live in a healthy and secure environment.
5. Spiritual Resiliency- strengthening a set of beliefs, principles or values that sustain a person beyond family, institutional and societal sources of strength.
