A 5K run was hosted by the 380th Air Expeditionary Wing’s Sexual Assault Prevention and Response office, April 29, 2022 at Al Dhafra Air Base. United Arab Emirates. 174 service members took to the starting line in support of the event and an additional 23 individuals showed their support as volunteers.
The event was one of the final events to cap off SAPR awareness month. Other events included Yoga for all, barbecues and a night around a campfire telling stories of resiliency.
“This month’s theme is to ‘Step Forward,’ ” said Meghan Root, the 380th AEW’s sexual assault response coordinator, “We are asking folks to ‘Step Forward’ to support survivors of sexual assault, to get and give consent, to prevent assaults from happening and to set and respect boundaries. It’s all on the shirt for the 5K.”
All those who participated received a free t-shirt as a small reminder to “Step Forward.”
