The Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner (SANE) Program provides care for sexual assault victims.

They provide emotional support; a physical examination and wellness check; collection of medical-forensic evidence; assistance with reporting the crime to police, when requested (mandatory reporting for children); assistance with concerns about sexually transmitted infection and pregnancy; assistance with safety planning; and development of a medical follow-up plan.
