## What the grant funds

This program is authorized by 34 U.S.C. 12291(b)(11). The SAFE Virtual Practicum (the Practicum) is an in-depth, interactive training on conducting sexual assault medical forensic exams (SAFEs). Based on the OVW SAFE Protocol and SAFE Training Standards, the Practicum allows the user to conduct a mock exam and includes a courtroom and a crime lab, interviews with victims, an expert roundtable, a mock Sexual Assault Response Team discussion, and scenarios with patients from unique populations, such as an elderly victim.
