This episode features Dr. Janel Perkins, Sexual Harassment/Assault Response and Prevention Program Branch Chief, who presents a reframed approach to Sexual Assault Awareness and Prevention Month (SAAPM) as a Professional Practice Reset. Rather than focusing on traditional awareness and messaging efforts, this podcast positions SAAPM as a Headquarters, Department of the Army (HQDA)-led initiative to reinforce the core competencies and responsibilities of SHARP professionals across the force.

About the Directorate of Prevention, Resilience and Readiness

In June 2023, the U.S. Army announced the realignment of the Army Resilience Directorate from G-1, personnel readiness, to the Office of the Deputy Chief of Staff in G-9. This move formalizes a new prevention governance structure, enabling a community approach to prevention that lowers the risk of harmful behaviors.

The consolidated directorate was renamed the Directorate of Prevention, Resilience and Readiness (DPRR) on July 1, 2023, and is led by Ms. Dee Geise, former director of SFRD.
