EVAWI staff spent two days in September with multidisciplinary professionals from across Oklahoma at the 2024 Partners for Change Conference. We spoke to hundreds of advocates, law enforcement officers, prosecutors, and other allied professionals about how EVAWI’s programs can help improve responses to gender-based violence. We also led two conference sessions on Seek Then Speak, an innovative online tool created by EVAWI to help survivors of sexual assault access justice and services, and we are proud to share that multiple agencies throughout Oklahoma now offer Seek Then Speak to survivors as an alternative way to report sexual assault to the police. https://lnkd.in/gpu7_d6Q
