"College Rape Survivors Help Create New Assault Reporting System That Protects Victims"

Article here. Excerpt:

'A nonprofit company, Sexual Health Innovations, has designed a new online system allowing college sexual assault victims to report crimes anonymously and safely:Callisto has not yet launched, but a campaignto help fund the project has already raised more than $6,000 toward a goal of $10,000.

What's unique about this system is that college-aged sexual assault victims and activists helped create it, and focused on ensuring victims feel safe and comfortable reporting their abusers. Users would visit their school-specific Callisto site and anonymously fill out a form reporting a sexual assault. They would then receive an explanation of reporting options and the opportunity to report as they choose right away, or save a time-stamped notice that the form was received and submit later if/when they feel ready. It's up to the victim who she wants to report it to, how much she wants to reveal, and when she wants to submit it.'
