Transition Centre

In coordination with our partners, CAF Transition Group provides professional, personalized, and standardized transition services and casualty support to CAF members, veterans, and their families.

​

For those who are ill or injured, the option to be posted to the Transition Group to focus on recovery, rehabilitation, and reintegration will continue to be an option for consideration by the CAF member’s chain of command, which when actioned early in the recovery stage, will ideally increase the number of members who are able to return to their CAF duties.

Virtual Services available upon request.

Transition Centre Winnipeg is the local face of the Canadian Armed Forces Transition Group (DWAN), and aims to provide an integrated, one-stop centre to offer:

  • Transition support all CAF members, Veterans, and their families with transition from military to civilian.

  • Support for ill and injured CAF members and their families, as well as casualty support.
     

Various CAF stakeholders and partners are working together to provide professional, personalized, and standardized transition services to all CAF members, Veterans, and their families.
