Who it would affect, and how
Potential Positive Impacts for People
-
Consideration of childcare needs: The bill would require the program to look at the member's child care requirements, including if a dependent is in the Exceptional Family Member Program (Section 2, subparagraph M). This could help ensure transition plans account for family needs.
-
Review of household employment: The bill adds the employment status of other adults living in the member's household as a factor (Section 2, subparagraph N). This ensures the transition process considers the broader economic situation of the family.
-
Location and family separation awareness: The program would consider the member's duty station location and whether the member was separated from family while on duty (Section 2, subparagraph O). This acknowledges the personal impact of military service locations.
-
Accounting for service tempo: The bill includes the effects of operating tempo and personnel tempo on the member and their household (Section 2, subparagraph P). This allows the transition assistance to account for the physical and mental effects of military deployment and workload.
