Discussion Post: Sexual Assault and Sexual Harassment
Sexual assault is often unreported, although more is being done to support those who have been sexually assaulted and to prevent such incidents from occurring. There is no doubt that sexual assault and harassment continue in the military, and women are the primary victims. How can the military reduce the prevalence of sexual assault and harassment, and what can you do as a helping professional to support victims of these crimes? For this Discussion, review this week's resources.
