Sexual Violence Resource of Georgia

A Sexual Assault Response Team (SART) is a multidisciplinary, interagency collaboration that unites its members in a coordinated, victim-centered approach to responding to sexual assaults. It allows those who respond to sexual assaults a way to intervene that addresses each victim’s circumstance and respects the unique roles of the different professionals involved in responding to sexual assault cases. It is a team approach implementing a comprehensive, sensitive, coordinated system of intervention and care for sexual assault victims, making the victims’ needs a priority, holding offenders accountable, and promoting public safety. 

The purpose of the Sexual Violence Resource of Georgia website is to:

1. Help Georgia communities understand the benefits of the SART response
2. Outline the principles guiding SARTs

4. Provide resources and training opportunities for best practices in SART response
