The course will focus on the initial response of a sexual assault. The training will address trauma and the neurobiology of the brain. Rape myths surrounding sexual assault cases will be discussed and addressed. There will be a focus on what it means to be victim centered and trauma informed and how to conduct trauma informed interviews with victims. The training will also address defendant interviews and considerations when dealing with offenders charged with sex crimes and considerations in report writing. The SANE program and the role of rape advocates will also be addressed. Social Media and evidence gathering from the internet will be discussed. The training will stress the importance of being trauma informed and victim centered to avoid re-traumatization of the victim. The goal of this training is to educate officers as to the complexities of sexual assault investigations, including: misperceptions about sexual assault victims and offenders which may make victims reluctant to report the crime; how trauma impacts the manner in which victims are able to report; how best to support sexual assault victims during their encounter with law enforcement and the criminal justice system; and how to focus on offender behaviors and hold offenders accountable. This training focuses on conducting trauma informed, victim sensitive interviews, effective techniques for offender interviews, considerations in report writing, investigating digital and social media platforms and a more in depth look at the neuro-biology of the brain that helps explain how trauma effects memory.
