Requires members of Sexual Assault Response Team to receive training on interacting with victims with developmental disabilities.*
S 1207 requires members of New Jersey's county Sexual Assault Response Teams to receive specific training on interacting with victims who have developmental disabilities. This amendment to existing law adds "interacting with victims who have developmental disabilities" as a mandatory training topic for team members. The bill does not create new services but updates training protocols for existing teams. It directly affects county Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner Program coordinators and their designated team members who provide care and support to sexual assault victims.
