What type of reports allow service members to request reviews related to involuntary separation?

The type of reports that allow service members to request reviews related to involuntary separation are unrestricted reports. These reports are crucial because they provide a formal mechanism for service members to disclose incidents of sexual assault and seek accountability. Unrestricted reports enable service members to access a full investigation and all accompanying resources, which inherently includes the ability to request reviews regarding involuntary separation.

In contrast, restricted reports serve a different purpose; they allow a survivor to report the assault confidentially without initiating an official investigation. Since restricted reports do not engage the formal investigative process, they do not afford the survivor the ability to request reviews related to involuntary separation.

Verbal reports are informal and do not constitute a structured process for requesting reviews or any formal action. Therefore, only unrestricted reports provide the channels necessary for such requests regarding involuntary separation, aligning with the objectives of the SAPR program to ensure accountability and support for service members seeking justice.
