How the Army prevents, investigates and prosecutes crimes — especially sexual assaults — will begin to change dramatically in 2022.
The service’s Sexual Harassment/Assault Response and Prevention program, which was highlighted as structurally flawed in the report by the Fort Hood Independent Review Committee, is undergoing a comprehensive redesign effort.
While much of the reform effort is yet to be public, the Army will begin a SHARP “fusion directorate” pilot in March that will synchronize and centralize victim services, investigators and prosecutors to improve victim care.
The Army’s top officer, Gen. James McConville, told Army Times in October that the fusion directorate is just the beginning.
