Many of the members who are released early in their career....Sometimes it is for reasons that are other than voluntary, for example, medical reasons. What is important to understand is that those who are released for medical reasons have also to deal with their health barriers. Particularly, if they are released for mental health reasons, they also have to deal with the stigma associated with that.
If we refer to the Maslow chain, before getting employment, they need to deal with their health problems. Some members retire for non-medical reasons. Some of them haven't built up experience to give them much credibility, so sometimes they require more preparation. When you serve for just a couple of years in the Canadian Armed Forces, you don't have time to upgrade academically. Sometimes, you don't think, “Well, I will get out of the forces.” When it is a non-voluntary release, you are often unprepared for that, which makes you more vulnerable.
