April is recognized nationally as Sexual Assault Awareness and Prevention Month (SAAPM). The Army's 2023 SAAPM theme is "Intervene, We are a Team: There is an US in Trust, can they trust in you?' This theme focuses on facilitating trust among our Soldiers to intervene to prevent sexual harassment and sexual assault. Intervention requires trust in our Leaders and Soldiers and each other to do the right thing when called upon to stop a potentially harmful situation from occurring.
The 2023 theme builds on the concepts of shaping Army culture, organizational climates, and individual responsibility to create an environment of mutual trust that promotes personal and unit readiness in preventing and mitigating misconduct. It is our duty and responsibility to build cohesive teams so our Soldiers, DA Civilians and Contractors are motivated to foster an environment of prevention.
