Join the National SART Listserv

The SART listserv promotes ongoing dialogue and information sharing among community and professional organizations/agencies that respond to sexual violence. The SART Listserv supports the safety, justice and autonomy of all victims and survivors of sexual violence; works to meet the needs of underserved/marginalized service providers in the development of SARTs; and creates a forum to enhance the response to systems advocacy and sexual violence prevention initiatives among sexual assault response teams.

To participate in the NSVRC’s national, multidisciplinary SART listserv, email us with your contact information.  Please indicate if you would like to receive individual emails as posted to the listserv or the digest version.
