Every year in April during Sexual Assault Awareness and Prevention Month, Army units host a series of events to reinforce the roles and responsibilities of every member of the Army Team to prevent sexual assault and sexual harassment.

U.S. Army NATO units launched the activities in Belgium, Germany, and Italy with proclamation signing ceremonies reaffirming their commitment to eliminating sexual assault and harassment.

The highlight of the AFNorth Stand-Down Day was the performance by the SHAPE International Band of a song written and produced by band member Sgt. 1st Class Miguel Davis.
