Evaluating the Work of Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner Programs in the Criminal Justice System: A Toolkit for Practitioners

Mark your calendar: the inaugural Forensic Journal Club is coming up 12 February. Find all the information you need to participate here.

I’m so excited to announce that the toolkit for evaluating SANE programs’ work in the criminal justice system (PDF) is now available. Many of you heard Dr. Campbell and colleagues speak about this in Puerto Rico last fall. I know I have been eagerly awaiting its release for quite some time. I feel confident this will be a useful tool for many of you (full disclosure: I was a consultant on this project).

If evaluation is intimidating, let this be your 1st foray–they made it incredibly user-friendly and adaptable, so it serves as a great foundation for looking at many different aspects of your program’s impact. Don’t be scared:)
