geographically relocating.

assigning prevention-related responsibilities to military leaders; 
medical, behavioral, and mental health service providers; staff from 
domestic abuse and related prevention programs; and others with 
relevant responsibilities, such as law enforcement.
    Respondents will be responding to the information collection to 
apply their expertise and help improve domestic abuse prevention and 
response in the military.
