In conjunction with the
DoD 2014-2016 Prevention Strategy and the
2015 Air Force Sexual Assault Prevention Strategy, prevention efforts at the Air Force Academy focus on the goal to realize an Air Force free from sexual assault. The fundamentals of sexual assault prevention include:
- Preventing Violence Before it Occurs
- Preventing Perpetration
- Promoting Prevention at Every Level
- Providing Ongoing Prevention Activities
The AF Sexual Assault Prevention Strategy further explains that the attitudes, behaviors, relationships and environments that increase an individual's risk for sexual assault perpetration are inconsistent with Air Force Core Values and represent multiple opportunities for prevention. Therefore, education, training, policies and programs to reduce attitudinal behavioral, experiential and cultural risk factors will be built upon Air Force Core Values.
