What responsibility do all Air Force members share regarding sexual assault?

All members of the Air Force share the responsibility to foster a climate of dignity and respect. This responsibility is critical in preventing sexual assault and supporting a culture that prioritizes the safety and well-being of every individual within the ranks. By cultivating such an environment, Air Force personnel contribute to the overall command climate, where individuals feel empowered to speak up, seek support, and report incidents without fear of retaliation or stigma.

This collective effort emphasizes the importance of mutual respect, encourages open dialogue about sexual assault, and helps ensure that everyone knows their role in upholding these values. Creating a respectful and dignified environment directly addresses issues related to sexual misconduct, facilitating trust and solidarity among service members.
