2009 SART CONFERENCE Well-received in Seattle
The Sexual Assault Resource Service (SARS) office in Minneapolis, MN is pleased to announce, in conjunction with the Office for Victims of Crime, Department of Justice, that the Fifth National SART Training Conference which was held in May of 2009 at the Westin Seattle in Seattle Washington, was deemed a very successful conference. An excellent line-up of speakers provided training to a multi-disciplinary group of professionals serving victims / survivors of sexual assault.
The focus of the 2009 SART Training Conference was to continue expanding the capacity of SARTs to promote health and healing of sexual assault victims, hold sex offenders accountable for their crimes, and realize the hope of preventing further sexual violence in their communities.

Thank you for your patience as we moved our website to a new server in an effort to continue providing timely and pertinent information to SANEs and SART teams around the country. The move has now been completed.
IMPORTANT NOTICE FOR USERS UPLOADING DATA TO THE SANE-SART DATA BASE:
We are continuing to experience a technical difficulty with the SANE data tool that allows our users to upload cases to our website. We have now determined that extensive programming will be required to make the SANE data tool operable. Unfortunately, it will require funding to accomplish this task. The SARS office has applied for a grant to facilitate this. We hope that the national database will be operational again this fall. When the SANE data tool is working properly, we will post it on the website. Thank you again for your patience.
Until then, we hope that you will catalogue your sexual assault data to enter in the national data base late this fall. If you choose to suspend entering data at this point and just resume entering new cases this fall, we certainly understand. In the mean time, you will continue to have access to the aggregate data entered up to the point when the data was transferred to the new server in May. While the date shown when you pull a report displays the current date, you will see that the total number of cases entered into the database is frozen at 8,388 cases.
If your agency has loaded over 100 sexual assault cases, your local aggregate data reports will be frozen at the total number of cases entered.
Once the SANE data tool has been reprogrammed, we hope to revise the form utilized for data entry to make the form more user-friendly as well as incorporating suggestions made as to the type of data you would like to see included.
Please notify us by e-mail if you have further suggestions for data that you collect that is not currently included on our "Client Data Sheet" and/or on the aggregate data reports. The e-mail address is admin@sartconference.com

With the addition of the Rhode Island program operating out of the Women and Infants Hospital, all fifty U.S. states now have at least one operating SANE program. The Rhode Island SANE program was started by Lu Force, RN, Donna LaFontaine, MD, and Susan Duffy, MD, with significant support from the RI State Attorney General, Patrick Lynch.
The Rhode Island program began providing service in February of 2006 . They currently have 14 SANE trained nurses performing exams, and they expect to see approximately 100 victims a year.
