Jackson County SART works to ensure an effective, collaborative response to sexual assault that prioritizes victims’ needs and reduces the traumatic after-effects of this crime; to help bring more offenders to justice; and to prevent sexual violence through community engagement and change.
Go to the Emergency Department of any Jackson County hospital within 7 days of an assault and tell them you are there for a sexual assault exam. You will be given a private room and a specially-trained Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner (SANE) will be called to care for you. A sexual assault advocate from our partner agency, Community Works, will also be available.
