Support on Base
Veterans Affairs Canada helps CF members and their families on-site at many CF locations.
Every releasing Regular Force member or medically releasing Reserve Force member can take part in a VAC Transition Interview. This is an interview between the releasing CF member and a member of his or her local VAC Client Service Team (CST). During the interview a CF member receives:
- information about the full range of VAC services, benefits and programs;
- help in developing a plan to organize his/her transition from military to civilian life;
- health care information;
- contact numbers for VAC and other government departments; and
- contact numbers for community and local service providers who may be of help during or after release.
CF members are encouraged to include their family in this interview.
