MNNG Sexual Assault Response and Prevention Follow-up
The Minnesota National Guard strives to advance a military culture free from sexual assault and harassment. In many respects we've come a long way in these areas, but critical work remains so long as we continue to have sexual harassment and assault in our formations. As a learning organization we strive to take a critical eye to our successes and failures alike to assess how we can continue to evolve and move forward with solutions that:
-Support survivors,
-Encourage reporting,
-Support improving our culture and climate,
-Educate and empower our service members and leaders to protect one another, and increase accountability.
The MN National Guard Adjutant General, Major General Jon Jensen has appointed a Sexual Assault Response and Prevention task force that is empowered to:
-Review our training, our policies, practices, and our case data,
-Interview survivors, service members, and leaders at all levels to identify opportunities for improvement and better outcomes.
The sexual assault stand-down events that were conducted this year were only the beginning. Now, we need your feedback and input to improve our processes. This survey intends to give you that opportunity.
