We hope this discussion provides language, understanding, and practical guidance as you navigate the uncertainty of Ordered Departure.
Hosted by Jones Hill in partnership with the American Foreign Service Association (AFSA), this recorded discussion was originally held as a virtual meeting on July 30, 2026. Following opening remarks from AFSA President John Dinkelman, therapists Sina Jones and Erin Abbott explore the psychological impact of prolonged uncertainty following Ordered Departure. Rather than a formal presentation, the discussion was shaped by questions submitted by Foreign Service families, allowing the conversation to address the concerns, experiences, and challenges many continued to navigate months after Ordered Departure.
If you'd like to return to this conversation later, we've also sent a link to the email address you used to register.
