JSP 100 Defence Holistic Transition Policy - Part 1 & Part 2 Combined: Directive and Guidance

Summary: This policy brings together all the support we offer our people and their families in
one place to aid their successful transition into civilian life at the end of their service. It
provides additional support to better prepare our people and their families for the future. It
seeks to create a cultural shift in the way every Service Person (SP) thinks about
resettlement and leaving service - focusing on the whole person and their families to
encourage them to begin their preparations earlier and to better prepare them throughout
their time in the Armed Forces. It provides direction and guidance for the Front Line
Commands (FLCs) so that they can allocate appropriate resources and create a common
level of support, regardless of where in Defence the SP works. It will also seek to identify
gaps and duplication of effort to improve support provision.
