Welcome to Fort Campbell's
Army Community Service
Sexual Assault Prevention and Response Program

Fort Campbell is fully committed to implementing the Army policy on Sexual Assault

Sexual assault is a criminal offense that has no place in the Army. It degrades mission readiness by devastating the Army's ability to work effectively as a team
Sexual assault is incompatible with Army Values and the Warrior Ethos and is punishable under the Uniform Codes of Military Justice (UCMJ) and other federal and local civilian laws
The Army will use training, education, and awareness to -
* Prevent sexual assault
* Promote the sensitive handling of victims of sexual assault
* Offer confidential counseling
* Hold those who commit sexual assault offenses accountable Reinforce a commitment to Army Values
The Army will treat all victims of sexual assault with dignity, fairness, and respect
The Army will treat every sexual assault incident seriously, thoroughly investigate the incident, and hold those who commit offenses accountable.

Definitions

Sexual Assault is a crime. Sexual Assault is defined as intentional sexual contact, characterized by use of force, physical threat or abuse of authority or when the victim does not or cannot consent.

Rape - Sexual intercourse by force and without consent

Forcible Sodomy - Oral or anal sex by force and without consent

Indecent Assault - Any non-consensual touching with the intent to gratify ones sexual desires.

Sexual assault can occur without regard to gender or spousal relationship or age of victim.

Reporting Options

Restricted Reporting

Restricted Reporting allows an Active Duty Soldier who is a sexual assault victim, on a confidential basis, to disclose the details of his/her assault to specifically identified individuals and receive medical treatment and counseling, without triggering the official investigative process or command notification. Soldiers who are sexually assaulted and desire restricted reporting under this policy must report the assault to the Sexual Assault Response Coordinator (SARC), Victim Advocate, Chaplain or a Healthcare Provider.

Unrestricted Reporting

Unrestricted Reporting allows a Soldier who is sexually assaulted and desires medical treatment, counseling, and an official investigation of his/her allegation to use current reporting channels (e.g., chain of command, law enforcement, or he/she may report the incident to the SARC or the Victim Advocate).

Upon notification of a reported sexual assault, the SARC will immediately notify a Victim Advocate. Additionally, with the victim's consent, the healthcare provider shall conduct a forensic examination, which may include the collection of evidence. Details regarding the incident will be limited to only those personnel who have a legitimate need to know.

Reduce Your Risk

Be especially prepared and alert in deployed environments. Travel with a buddy. Report any unauthorized males or females in
sleeping areas. Know that some cultures may treat females differently than in the U.S. Be assertive and clearly state if you feel
uncomfortable.

The safety of your fellow Soldier and your unit may depend on you. If you hear any conversation about forcing another person into sexual relations, report it immediately to the Commander or the SARC.

Victim's Rights

The right to be treated with fairness,
dignity, and a respect for privacy
The right to be protected from the accused offender
The right to be notified of court proceedings
The right to be present at all public court proceedings related to the assault unless the court determines that testimony by the victim would be materially affected if the victim heard other testimony at trial, or for other good cause
The right to talk to the attorney for the Government in the case
The right to seek restitution, if appropriate
The right to information regarding conviction, sentencing, imprisonment, and release of the offender from custody.
