SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The DAC-PSM's charter is being renewed in 
accordance with the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA) (5 U.S.C., 
Appendix) and 41 CFR 102-3.55(a)(4). The charter and contact

found at <a href="https://www.facadatabase.gov/FACA/apex/FACAPublicAgencyNavigation">https://www.facadatabase.gov/FACA/apex/FACAPublicAgencyNavigation</a>.
    The DAC-PSM provides the Secretary of Defense, Deputy Secretary of 
Defense (``the DoD Appointing Authority''), the Under Secretary of 
Defense for Personnel and Readiness (USD(P&R)), and, as applicable, the 
Secretary of Homeland Security, with independent advice and 
recommendations on the prevention of sexual assault (including rape, 
forcible sodomy, other sexual assault, and other sexual misconduct 
(including behaviors on the sexual assault continuum of harm)) 
involving members of the Armed Forces and the policies, programs, and 
practices of each Military Department, each Armed Force, each Military 
Service Academy (to include the United States Coast Guard Academy), at 
all DoD educational institutions and training facilities for the 
prevention of sexual assault, and other topics of special interest to 
the Department in response to specific tasks from the DoD Appointing 
Authority or the USD(P&R). The DAC-PSM is composed of no more than 20 
members who are eminent authorities in the field and who have expertise 
in the prevention of sexual assault and behaviors on the sexual assault 
continuum of harm; adverse behaviors, including the prevention of 
suicide and the prevention of substance abuse; the change of culture of 
large organizations; implementation science; sexual assault prevention 
efforts of institutions of higher education, public health officials, 
and such other individuals as the DoD Appointing Authority considers 
appropriate. Members will consist of talented, innovative private 
sector leaders with a diversity of background, experience, and thought 
in support of the DAC-PSM missions.
    Individual members are appointed according to DoD policy and 
procedures, and serve a term of service of one-to-four years with 
annual renewals. One member will be appointed as Chair of the DAC-PSM. 
No member, unless approved by the DoD Appointing Authority according to 
DoD policy and procedures, may serve more than two consecutive terms of 
service on the DAC-PSM, or serve on more than two DoD Federal advisory 
committees at one time.
    DAC-PSM members who are not full-time or permanent part-time 
Federal civilian officers or employees are appointed as experts or 
consultants, pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 3109, to serve as special government 
employee members. DAC-PSM members who are full-time or permanent part-
time Federal civilian officers or employees are designated pursuant to 
41 CFR 102-3.130(a), to serve as regular government employee members. 
In accordance with Sec.  550B(b)(3) of the Fiscal Year 2020 National 
Defense Authorization Act, no active duty member of the Armed Forces 
shall be appointed as a DAC-PSM member.
    All DAC-PSM members are appointed to provide advice based on their 
best judgment without representing any particular point of view and in 
a manner that is free from conflict of interest. Except for 
reimbursement of official DAC-PSM-related travel and per diem, members 
serve without compensation.
    The public or interested organizations may submit written 
statements about the DAC-PSM's mission and functions. Written 
statements may be submitted at any time or in response to the stated 
agenda of planned meeting of the DAC-PSM. All written statements shall 
be submitted to the DFO for the DAC-PSM, and this individual will 
ensure that the written statements are provided to the membership for 
their consideration.
