Thank you for your question.
I'll start responding, and then I'll ask Mr. Freeman to provide additional information.
The purpose of the family resource centres is to meet the specific needs of medically released Canadian Forces members and their families. We've established 32 military family resource centres, where coordinators support not only veterans, but also their families during the transition period. They can visit these centres in person or contact the centres by phone, an increasingly crucial option in the pandemic period.
They can also access online resources for help with their transition to civilian life. The information line is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The coordinators can help veterans because they're aware of the veterans' specific needs. The coordinators refer family members to information and resources in the community to help make the veterans' transition easier.
With that I might ask Mitch if he would add a little bit more about the veteran family program if that's okay.
