Military Sexual Assault and the Continuum of Harm
Sexual assault in the military continues to be a global public health and human rights problem. It has even created a black mark against the U.S. military services, a male-dominated system that has experienced ongoing issues with sexual assault since their inception. Although there has been progress in addressing prevention and intervention, sexual harassment and assault remain serious issues throughout the Department of Defense. There can devastating effects on all aspects of survivors' lives more many years, and for some, even a lifetime. The National Partnership to End Interpersonal Violence Across the Lifespan (NPEIV) invites you to join us for a presentation on “Military Sexual Assault: The Continuum of Harm” that will address some of the underlying causes and dynamics of sexual assault in the military, how it is both similar and different from sexual assault outside of the military, and what is being done to combat this ongoing issue.
