ABOUT NMR

Not My Reality (NMR) strives to create a safe haven for military affiliated survivors of sexual assault and harassment. We believe that every service member deserves to be respected and honored during their career, without the interference of sexual crimes. Our mission at NMR is to reform the sexual assault advocacy programs within the Department of Defense in order to create a better military experience for survivors while also educating commands and leadership on proper procedures and debunking common misconceptions. We believe that inclusivity leads to tighter bonds within our military, which in turn would create a stronger fighting force. The statement “perception is reality” has long perpetuated harmful stigmas within our ranks. Not My Reality plans to lead the charge in recognizing and dismantling the rape culture in our military today and combatting the damage that past biases have caused for survivors of sexual assault and harassment. Our goals and ways to achieve them will constantly be changing and shared on this site. August 1st, 2020 our updated site will be available for all.
