This conference workshop presentation discusses how jurisdictions are being tasked with tracking their sexual assault (SA) kits from collection at medical facilities, inventory and storage, analysis at crime laboratories and storage or destruction after completion or analysis. In addition, in many cases they are required to provide anonymous access to victims so they can track the status of their kits. SAM-TRACK is unique in that it was developed by a public entity using federal grant funds. It provides a secure platform and leverages current technologies and best practices using the web or mobile devices. The victim portal is designed to provide kit status anonymously. SANEs have been doing their forensic exams on paper then scanning them, so the presenters created an iPad app to make it more efficient.
