RADAR PROJECT

The RADAR Project was created to develop innovative technology to support victims, provide access to resources for healing, and to raise funds for sexual and domestic violence research and prevention. In the process of engaging the public in this public health crisis, The RADAR Project strives to start a conversation on sexual assault and demolish the taboo on open public discussion... The RADAR Project aims to diminish the impact of violence on individuals and communities. Our mission is to empower victims with proper relief and recovery, encourage efficient reporting and information sharing, revolutionize the response to sexual assault and domestic violence, and create a better world... In 2013, working at a local rape crisis center in suburban Philadelphia, Meri López, an attorney, and Leslie Holt, a victims advocate/rape crisis counselor, became increasingly aware of the inefficient way in which rape and domestic assault are reported.
