Raising Awareness About ‘Court-Ordered Rape’

May 23, 2019 By SiteAdmin

ACESDV was contacted by a survivor who has been working with attorneys, advocates, and academics to raise awareness and bring an end to a traumatic practice referred to as ‘court-ordered rape,’ or invasive gynecological exams that survivors of sexual assault are ordered to endure in the course of proceedings against their perpetrators.

  • Villanova University Professor of Law Michelle Madden Dempsey provides preliminary legal research into ‘court-ordered rape’
  • National Association of Adult Survivors of Child Abuse panel discussion on ‘court-ordered rape’

If you are a survivor who has been ordered to undergo such an exam, you can access free, confidential help by reaching out to ACESDV’s Sexual and Domestic Violence Services Helpline by calling 602-279-2900 or through our online chat: www.acesdv.org/helpline.
