The Statewide Sexual Assault Response Team (SART) Resource Manual was developed in 2007 as a resource for communities who are working in multidisciplinary teams. The manual is no longer in print and is available electronically only. Please feel free to download and distribute in your community. Feel free to call CCASA staff for any assistance in the process of building your SART.

The Sexual Assault Advocacy and Crisis Line Training Guide was released in March 2001. CCASA recently received funding to revise and update the guide and formed a revision committee in October 2009 consisting of members representing urban and rural programs across the state. If you are interested in assisting with revising the guide, please contact us at advocacy@ccasa.org.

During the revision process, the training guide is not available in print. Please contact Karen Moldovan at advocacy@ccasa.org if you would like to receive an electronic copy. Once revision is complete (scheduled for December 2010), each CCASA member program will receive one printed copy of the guide. Additional copies will be available for $35 each to cover printing and shipping costs.

The Sexual Assault Advocacy and Crisis Line Training Guide is a dynamic and comprehensive resource on sexual assault and a host of related issues. It contains both hotline/counseling training and informational components in its 300-plus pages. The content design is based on the feedback from CCASA members and it has been substantially expanded from the 1991 CCASA Training Manual. Topics include:

- counseling & advocacy
- cultural competency
- counseling steps & strategies
- understanding the effects of sexual assault
- age-related sexual assault
- culture & population perspectives
- setting as context for sexual assault
- medical procedures
- legal procedures
