In this webinar, representatives from the New Orleans SAKI site will discuss a 2014 audit conducted by the New Orleans Office of the Inspector General (OIG) that found problems with NOPD’s documenting and reporting of rapes. Commander Doug Eckert will discuss how leadership within the NOPD changed policies and procedures to create a better response to sexual assault leading to a 2016 OIG report praising the transformation of the Sex Crimes Unit. This webinar will also explore the need for other community stakeholders and multi-disciplinary partnerships when addressing untested SAKs and creating a victim-centered approach to sexual assault cases.

This webinar will be presented by Professor Pamela Jenkins of the University of New Orleans, Commander Doug Eckert from the Criminal Investigations Divisions of the New Orleans Police Department, the Chief of Staff and Vice President of Tulane, Tania Tetlow, and Aviva Kurash of the International Association of Chiefs of Police.
