Specifically, committee members and witnesses discussed how the Military Family Resource Centres across Canada respond to physical and psychological needs of injured veterans and their families. In addition, two private companies, WCG International HR Consultants and Right Management, presented on the kind of career rehabilitation and career services they offer to veterans respectively. They offered some suggestions on how to better coordinate and optimize career services to veterans and reported on their success stories.
