TOOL
A victim notification protocol is a critical tool for sexual assault investigations because it helps investigators and victim advocates to ensure that sexual assault victims receive the continual support and assistance they need. This resource provides tips for developing a victim notification protocol that is grounded in trauma-informed, victim-centered practices.
Funded by the Bureau of Justice Assistance, the Sexual Assault Kit Initiative aims to create a coordinated community response that ensures just resolution to sexual assault cases. Through this program, funding is provided to support multidisciplinary community response teams engaged in the comprehensive reform of jurisdictions approaches to sexual assault cases resulting from evidence found in previously unsubmitted sexual assault kits.
