Sexual Assault Reports App
A new app has been designed for people to report sexual assault, without the fear that some people may experience when reporting assault to the relevant authorities.
The Crime Stoppers-style Sexual Assault Report Anonymously (SARA) app was launched last month, allowing victims to submit details of an attack anonymously, anywhere in Australia. Developed by the Centre Against Sexual Assault as an alternative for people who do not want to go to the police, it allows victims to supply footage of an attack as well as the GPS co-ordinates where it occurred.
For more info on this app, check out http://www.sara.org.au/
