Description: Webinar participants will learn about the goal of this project, which is to develop a live 24-hour telemedicine center to help sexual assault nurse examiners (SANEs) and other forensic medical examiners collect evidence from a victim of sexual assault. The recipient of this $3.5 million award will issue a separate solicitation, in partnership with OVC, to set up four pilot sites, and will use cutting-edge audiovisual technology to walk a health care provider through a forensic medical examination.
