Welcome to the Sexual Assault Prevention and Response Office (SAPRO) web site. SAPRO serves as the single point of accountability for Department of Defense (DoD) sexual assault policy. The Department of Defense does not tolerate sexual assault and has implemented a comprehensive policy that reinforces a culture of prevention, response and accountability that ensures the safety, dignity and well-being of all members of the Armed Forces. Our men and women serving throughout the world deserve nothing less, and their leaders-military and civilian-are committed to maintaining a workplace environment that rejects sexual assault and attitudes that promote such behaviors. This web site provides guidance and other information for victims of sexual assault, unit commanders, first responders, and those who wish to prevent or respond to this crime. Sections address confidentiality, reporting procedures, and other elements of DoD's sexual assault policy as well as training information, safety tips, resources and links to related web sites. Your feedback will help to improve this site. Please send your comments to SAPRO. Your interest in the DoD Sexual Assault Prevention and Response Program is greatly appreciated. Thank you for your continued support of our men and women in uniform.
