Key Findings

• One size does not fit all families: There is no "recipe" for reintegration after deployment, and problems experienced during reintegration vary across families and over time.
• Families that report a smooth readjustment are more likely to have favorable views toward continued service in the National Guard or Reserve.
• Although family initiative is central to successful reintegration, DoD can play a role by emphasizing early preparation and facilitating good communication.
• Resource providers outside DoD abound, but a lack of coordination and other barriers may prevent families from making the most of this vast "web of support."
