Joint Public Affairs Support Element (JPASE)

The Joint Enabling Capabilities Command’s (JECC) Joint Public Affairs Support Element (JPASE), located in Suffolk, Va., provides the warfighter with trained, equipped, scalable and expeditionary joint public affairs (JPA) capability to support world-wide operational require­ments. JPASE is an early entry capability that enables the joint force commander (JFC) to gain and maintain the initiative in the information domain.

JPASE has three missions:

• Expeditionary capability – JPASE deployable teams provide a standing, rapidly-deployable, turn-key JPA capability to support various operational requirements.  JPASE can deploy alone or with any combination of other joint enabling capabilities based on the needs of the combatant commander or JFC.
• Training support – JPASE provides quality public affairs training through participation in major exercises, seminars and planning events to better enable JFCs and their staffs to successfully meet continuously evolving information environment challenges in their respective theaters of operation.
• Proponency– JPASE defines capabilities, establishes joint standards, leads development and education and researches, explores and experiments in areas of concern to the JPA community across the entire spectrum of doctrine, organization, training, materiel, leadership and education, personnel and facilities.

JECC’s JPASE has deployed in support of:

• Operation Unified Response / JTF – Haiti
• Joint Task Force (JTF) – 435, Afghanistan
• U.S. Central Command Theater Planning
• U.S. Forces Afghanistan
• Hurricanes Gustav and Ike
• Republic of Georgia Humanitarian Assistance
