Sexual Assault Awareness and Prevention Month (SAAPM)

Sexual Assault Awareness and Prevention Month (SAAPM) is recognized in April by both civilian and military communities. The Department of Defense observes SAAPM by focusing on creating the appropriate culture to eliminate sexual assault and requiring a personal commitment from all Service members at every level. We all have a part in combating sexual assault and SAAPM offers an excellent opportunity to focus attention on our individual roles.

We all have a role in preventing sexual assault and localizing SAAPM activities is a great way to extend this message.
