All regular forces are offered and are supposed to have a transition interview. I'll put the reservists aside for a second.
Regular forces are offered and they are supposed to have a transition interview. Last year the number who got one was in the high nineties. That's what we've done in the past. That is more of an “are you doing okay?” The person says he's doing fine and you go through the check marks, asking if he has a job and, “yes, he has a job he's going to”, etc.
We're realizing that they're not disclosing. They're leaving the armed forces for whatever personal reason. Maybe they don't even know. Sometimes they don't know. They just don't want to do it any more. They arrive outside the armed forces and realize that they have an issue. The new guided support we're offering is that transition interview, but much further. It's spending the time with the healthy soon-to-be veteran to make sure things are covered and to make sure that if they were injured.... It could be a bad knee. Sometimes it's not always mental health. I know that today we're talking more about mental health, but we ask, “Have you applied for a disability award?”, “Is your medical record up to date?” They come to us and if the medical record is not up to date, it takes time to release, medically or non-medically.
We do all that while they are still in uniform, prior to releasing, regardless of whether it's service related or if they're walking out regularly.
