In partnership with law enforcement and local leadership (County representatives, Chiefs), KWCWC has developed a protocol to ensure safety, justice, and ongoing follow-up. This will be complemented by an on-site forensic lab where specimens are processed and stored locally, providing a critical resource for legal proceedings.
KWCWC has partnered with local governments and will collaborate with both public and private institutions to refer an average of 300 cases per month to access care and shelter. Community health workers, equipped with mobile technology, will assist in the identification and assessment of victims, offering a safe hotline for counseling or admission to care. Technology will be leveraged to track and follow up on victims’ progress and referrals to additional resources.
