Resources

Additional Sexual and Reproductive Health Resources:

The World Health Organization (WHO) defines sexual health as “…a state of physical, emotional, mental and social well-being in relation to sexuality; it is not merely the absence of disease, dysfunction or infirmity. Sexual health requires a positive and respectful approach to sexuality and sexual relationships, as well as the possibility of having pleasurable and safe sexual experiences, free of coercion, discrimination and violence. For sexual health to be attained and maintained, the sexual rights of all persons must be respected, protected and fulfilled.”

Important Information about SANE Exams:

What is a "SANE" exam?

A Sexual Assault Nurse Examination (SANE) Exam is a way to collect evidence that may be on a victim's body after a sexual assault or an incident of domestic violence. SANE exams may also be called a sexual assault forensic exam, and the evidence collected may be called a “rape kit.”  
These exams are done at a hospital by a specially trained nurse, called a SANE Nurse. SANE nurses are educated in how to care for someone who has been assaulted. The exam involves a physical exam, collection of forensic evidence, and medical care such as treatment of injuries, STI testing, and emergency contraception.
It is recommended that a SANE exam would be performed within 72 hours. However, if it has been longer than 72 hours you can still request a SANE exam up to 7 days after an assault.  A survivor who is 18 or older does not need to report the crime to have an exam, but the process provides an opportunity to safely store evidence if they want to make a report at a later time and to receive medical care.
