For more information, contact Teresa Matthews, Cuyahoga County SART Administrator at (216) 698-3237 or via email CC_SART@yahoo.com.

The Cuyahoga County Sexual Assault Response Team (SART) is a consortium of professionals who provide direct service (i.e. medical care, counseling, advocacy and justice system assistance) to individuals who have been sexually assaulted and represent organizations that provide related services to special populations.

The SART membership includes SANE Coordinators, the Cleveland Rape Crisis Center, the Sex Crimes/Child Abuse Unit for the City of Cleveland, the County Prosecutor's Office, and the Cuyahoga County Witness/Victim Service Center, among others.

The goal of SART is to improve communication and coordination among these disciplines, establish more SANE Units throughout the county, enhance the evidence collection process so it is admissible at trial, increase prosecution rates, and advocate for greater understanding within the public of SART and how it operates.

Cleveland Rape Crisis Center is the fiscal agent of SART.
