Recognise Military Sexual Trauma (MST) and fund support for survivors

Closed 52 signatures

What the petition asks

We call on the Government to take responsibility and action to provide 'gender specific' trauma informed, confidential and independent specialist interventions/support for survivors of MST.

The UK Government & (Ministry of Defence) should, like our international partners adopt the term Military Sexual Trauma (MST) as a stand-alone and recognisable enduring traumatic experience that affects men but disproportionately women service personnel, during and after military service.

Forward Assist are actively campaigning for equitable mental health support services & post service employment opportunities. https://www.forward-assist.com/salute-her
