Launching Your SART: A Comprehensive Toolkit for Sexual Assault Response Teams

Forming a SART can seem like an overwhelming task, and the amount of information and resources available can be intimidating. SVJI has developed this toolkit to provide a clear, concise resource for new SARTs to begin their work and for established SARTs to continue a path to success.

The toolkit provides an overview of the processes involved in forming a SART. While it does not cover all issues and considerations related to SART work, it includes links and additional resources for further information on various topics. This toolkit serves as a general starting point for new SARTs, focusing on the preparation and formation of the team. It is designed to be adaptable to your community’s unique resources, needs, and service area.
