Sexual Assault Response Teams (SART)

Sexual Assault Response Teams (SART) are coordinated groups of professionals designed to support survivors of sexual assault. They typically include law enforcement, medical personnel, and advocates who work together to provide comprehensive care and assistance. SART aims to ensure survivors receive immediate medical attention, emotional support, and help navigating the legal system. By collaborating, these teams enhance the response to sexual assault cases, ensuring survivors are treated with dignity and respect while improving evidence collection for potential prosecutions. The ultimate goal is to promote healing and justice for victims.
