Subj : SEXUAL ASSAULT PREVENTION , RESPONSE , AND RECOVERY ( SAPRR ) UPDATE

1 . ALCOAST 369 / 20 was released on September 29 , 2020 and is provided in its entirety below . It makes clear that the Commandant ’ s Sexual Assault Prevention , Response , and Recovery ( SAPRR ) vision is a Coast Guard where all members of our mission ready total workforce … active duty , Reserve , civilian and Auxiliary … live and work in a climate of trust , respect , and dignity ; are leaders who take prompt action to correct any behavior counter to this climate ; and do not stand by and allow it to occur . The ALCOAST also highlights recent actions taken by the Coast Guard to enhance its readiness and support for SAPRR management including the addition of new Victim Advocates Program Specialist ( VAPS ) positions .

2 . Auxiliarists are not full-time federal employees , and as such are not subject to many of the provisions of the Coast Guard ’ s SAPRR Program defined in Commandant Instruction Manual 1754.10 ( series ) which provides the foundation for ALCOAST 369 / 20 . It is most important , though , for Auxiliarists to be aware that they are entitled to initial consultation and referral services from a Sexual Assault Response Coordinator ( SARC ), credentialed volunteer Victim Advocate , or a VAPS when sexual assault is reported or alleged while assigned to duty .

Such services include referral to the Department of Labor ( DOL ) for consultation .
