  • Zero8hundred Testimony to House Armed Services Military Personnel Subcommittee Sean Mahoney October 28, 2015
    zero8hundred Testimony to House Armed Services Military Personnel Subcommittee Sean Mahoney October 28, 2015 Introduction Chairman Heck, Ranking member Davis, distinguished members of the subcommittee, thank you for the opportunity to appear before you to speak about this important topic. I’d like to share my experience with a community initiative and partnership with military bases in San Diego that provides a community handoff from on-base transition classes to support service members and their families. Background Every year, approximately 20,000 service members stationed in San Diego County leave military service, and approximately 30% of them are expected to stay in the local community. Studies show that the post 9/11 transitioning population is one of great promise. Individuals are well trained, team oriented, and hardworking, but also in need of support. At a national level, we know that half of these veterans experience difficulty transitioning to civilian life. Challenges with transition affect not only the service members, but spouses and families as well, perhaps for many years to come. This points to the value of prevention and early intervention initiatives to support military transition. San Diego community leaders realized that many organizations were available to assist transitioning families, but the gap between them and transitioning members who are often unaware of community resources was a significant challenge. These leaders developed a comprehensive community plan to close this gap without duplicating existing support services. The overarching goal of the plan was to link active duty military families to comprehensive wraparound services in the community during transition. This plan was called the Military Transition Support Project (MTSP), and implemented as zero8hundred.
