Human Resources Command To Host Raise The Bars Motorcycle Ride Tomorrow

The U.S. Army Human Resources Command will hold its eighth annual Raise The Bars Motorcycle Ride on April 26. “April is the Sexual Assault Awareness and Prevention Month and it’s highlighted all across the U. S Army at all of our installations and globally. This is just one of many events that we’re highlighting over the month. We do this to bring awareness to sexual assault and harassment, but also to help protect our people with the prevention of sexual assault and harassment. The motorcycle ride is one of those events where we get to gather, we get to reaffirm our commitment to the prevention and the resources available to survivors,“ shared Public Affairs Officer, Lieutenant Colonel Ally Scott. HRC has 43 credentialed sexual assault victim advocates within its command who ensure that victims are made aware of local, regional and national support services. “The Chief of Staff of the Army, General James McConville, says we are all charged with setting conditions that enforce Army standards to prevent sexual offenses. Protecting our people is protecting our mission. We take that very seriously here at the Human Resources Command and across the Army. If we can create a happy health life balance here at work and at home, that is our goal with all of our service members and staff.” The event is open to the public and begins at 1:00 PM at the Human Resources Command on Fort Knox. The rain date is April 28.
