Approximately six months ago, we brought in a measure that helps families a great deal. Thirty days or so after the burial has taken place, a designated officer meets with the family, along with the officer in charge of the detachment, a chaplain from the Pastoral Outreach Program and an official from Veterans Affairs Canada. Canadian Forces and Veterans Affairs Canada provide emotional support to the family. The Centre operates detachments in 11 locations across the country.
