Sexual Assault Prevention and Response program

Los Angeles Air Force Base is committed to maintaining a safe and secure environment for our Space and Air Force families. Sexual violence is inconsistent with our core values and quality of life standards. The Los Angeles AFB Sexual Assault Prevention and Response (SAPR) Office serves as the single point of contact for integrating and coordinating sexual assault victim and survivors' care 24/7, 365 days a year. Upon receipt of a report of sexual assault, the Sexual Assault Response Coordinator will assign a Victim Advocate to help obtain necessary services and provide crisis intervention, referral and ongoing non-clinical support.

Help is just a phone call away: If you have been sexually assaulted, please call the Los Angeles Air Force Base 24/7 SARC Response Helpline at (310) 653-7272. Additionally, you may also contact the 24-hour DoD Safe Helpline to confidentially talk to a counselor at (877) 995-5247 or http://www.safehelpline.org
