“Responding to Sexual Violence in Miami Dade County” <\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

First-of-its-kind healthcare-based response to sexual violence in Miami-Dade County. MDSARI was developed by specialized forensic nurses to address the critical gap in the care and support for survivors of sexual assault, domestic violence, and human-trafficking. While Miami-Dade is home to exceptional institutions serving survivors, we know insurmountable barriers to timely trauma-informed care remain. <\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

We can help bridge the gaps that make it difficult to move forward on your journey to recovery!<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
