Listen "Reshaping Justice to Truly Support Survivors of Sexual Assault"

Episode Synopsis

It probably has one of the most iconic musical themes of any show on television and it does address stories "ripped from the headlines" but does Law and Order SVU show a realistic view of what happens when someone is sexually assaulted? That is just one topic discussed on this week's episode that takes a broader view of how the justice system fails survivors and what my guests are doing to change through trauma informed education.If you listened to last week's episode you heard the story of Madi Smith that was featured in the documentary "Loud Enough Surviving Justice." This week's episode continues the conversation and delves into how the justice system failed Madi and continues to fail other survivors of sexual assault, and what is being done by my guests Julie Germann and Justin Boardman --who were featured in the documentary--to change that. Director Hilary Klotz Steinman joins me again on this episode as she is the one who connected us all and is the one who is bringing this all to light in her documentary.To learn more about the work Julie is doing and to bring her training to your organization, visit her business website Finding the Right.
