Defense Advisory Committee on Women in the Services 2018 Annual Report

The Defense Advisory Committee on Women in the Services—known as DACOWITS—delivers to the U.S. Department of Defense advice and recommendations on policies related to the recruitment, retention, treatment, employment, integration, and well-being of the highly qualified professional women in the U.S. Armed Forces. In 2018 Insight collected and analyzed data from focus groups with hundreds of military service members, conducted several literature reviews, and compiled findings from a wide array of data sources to inform 15 topic areas.

Authored by Insight’s military and veteran support team, the DACOWITS’s 2018 Annual Report presents key research findings and nine recommendations to advise the Secretary of Defense on the following topics: marketing strategies, gender integration, Marine Corps recruit training, personal protective equipment, healthy unit climate, parental leave policies, performance evaluations, and transition assistance.
