Empowering survivors: Confronting sexual assault, supporting healing, and promoting awareness
1st Lt. Zizi Zemeheret, 59th Medical Operations Squadron social work fellow, and Lt. Col. Kirsten DeLambo, 59th Medical Operations Squadron psychological health director, demonstrates a staged counseling session in the Mental Health Clinic at Wilford Hall Ambulatory Surgical Center, Joint Base San Antonio-Lackland, Texas, April 23, 2024. In efforts to promote sexual assault awareness and prevention: speak out if witnessing harassment, utilize the various counseling options available to survivors, and be informed of the two available – Unrestricted and Restricted – reporting options. Unrestricted Reports enable adult victims of sexual assault to report crimes without requesting confidentiality for their allegations, while Restricted Reports allow adult victims of sexual assault to confidentially report the crime to specified individuals without initiating an investigation.
