  • Title: Facilitating reintegration for military service personnel, veterans, and their families: An introduction to the special issue.
    Author: Elnitsky CA, Kilmer RP.
    Journal: Am J Orthopsychiatry; 2017; 87(2):109-113. PubMed ID: 28206798.
    Abstract:
    As service members return from active duty and, in some cases, exit the military, they face a process of reintegration (also referred to as community reintegration) as they seek to resume participation in their life roles as civilians. Facilitating this dynamic process of reintegration for service members, veterans, and their families-including outlining potential strategies for supporting this return to civilian life and its demands, roles, and responsibilities-is the focus of this Special Issue. Reintegration has been framed as a national priority (U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, 2015) and has been a point of emphasis of efforts at federal, state, and local levels. As the articles in this issue suggest, multiple public, private, and voluntary systems and the communities to which service members, veterans, and their families return can help influence their health outcomes and, ultimately, their reintegration.
