Confronting a Silent Crisis: Deciphering the U.S. Army’s SHARP Program

A Personal Note from the Author

Hey everyone, Jamie here. I wanted to take a moment to talk about why we’re delving into the SHARP Program and why it matters — not just to service members but to all of us.

You see, the SHARP Program isn’t just an acronym or a series of training sessions; it’s a life-altering endeavor that promises to make the U.S. Army a safer, more respectful environment for everyone who serves. And given that I am a United States Army veteran, this topic hits close to home.

Respect, trust, and honor are virtues we all hold dear, and the military should be no exception. So, as we go through this exploration of SHARP today, keep in mind that this is just the beginning. We’re laying the foundation for a much broader conversation, including assessing how effective this Program has been. Stick with me through this series as we aim to uncover truths, challenge norms, and spur positive change.

Alright, enough preamble. Let’s get into it.
