EVAWI’s Cadre of Experts are available to provide high quality training and consultation on survivor-centered and offender-focused investigations, prosecutions, and related topics. The group includes leading national experts in sexual assault, intimate partner violence, and other forms of gender-based violence.

For more information, please contact Cadre members directly. As individual contractors, they do not formally represent EVAWI, so all correspondence and negotiation will take place between the expert and the jurisdiction seeking services.
