Emergency Assistance

The mission of the Department of Defense Sexual Assault Prevention and Response Program is to prevent and respond to sexual assault, eliminating it from our ranks through a balance of focused education, comprehensive response, compassionate advocacy and just adjudication in order to promote professionalism, respect and trust while preserving Navy mission readiness

What are the reporting options?
It is important to understand the two reporting options: restricted and unrestricted. Reporting options may vary from state to state - contact your local Sexual Assault Prevention and Response Program coordinator for specifics. Contacting a law enforcement agency or medical personnel may not allow the victim a choice of the reporting options.

I think I was sexually assaulted
If you have been, or think you may have been sexually assaulted, immediately contact the Safe Helpline or a local Sexual Assault Prevention and Response Program coordinator, or command Sexual Assault Prevention and Response victim advocate.

Someone I supervise has been sexually assaulted
Contact a local Sexual Assault Prevention and Response Program coordinator or command Sexual Assault Prevention and Response victim advocate.

In a natural disaster or emergency, the American Red Cross will provide additional support in the form of shelters, counseling, and volunteers to assist with your needs. 

The Red Cross Service to the Armed Forces (SAF) branch of the American Red Cross offers a wide range of resources to service members, veterans and their families.

The Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society (NMCRS) mission is to provide, in partnership with the Navy and Marine Corps, financial, educational, and other assistance to members of the Naval Services of the United States, eligible family members, and survivors when in need; and to receive and manage funds to administer these programs.

The Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society provides several programs to assist with financial needs and emergencies such as:

• Quick assist loans (Quick Assist Loans)

• Emergency transportation

• Visiting nurses

• Funeral expenses

• Medical/dental bills (patient's share)

• Food, rent and utilities

• Disaster relief assistance

• Childcare expenses (Budget for Baby)

• Essential vehicle repairs

• Unforeseen family emergencies

• Education assistance

• Thrift shops (NMCRS Thrift Shops)

Service members or eligible family members with an emergent need should contact the nearest NMCRS office to make an appointment. For the most time-critical emergencies, service members may be able to be assisted in an office the same day, but it is best to call the nearest office first to speak with a caseworker to determine how NMCRS may best be able to assist. If available, plan to bring your military identification card, most recent Leave and Earnings Statement, and any documentation that helps with verifying the need to the office. If you are outside the San Diego area and the San Diego area NMCRS offices are closed, or the emergency cannot wait until the next business day, the American Red Cross may administer emergency funds on behalf of NMCRS to qualifying service members and their families. Call the American Red Cross Service to the Armed Forces Center or call 877-272-7337.
