The International Association of Forensic Nurses (IAFN) would like to announce that the Indigenous Sexual Assault & Abuse Clearinghouse (ISAAC) Project has transitioned to the National Tribal Clearinghouse on Sexual Assault (NTCSA). These exciting changes are occurring as the IAFN grows its partnership with the Minnesota Indian Women’s Sexual Assault Coalition. Both organizations are excited and proud to deliver a new combined Tribal Clearinghouse dedicated to providing culturally-appropriate training and technical assistance, a resource library, podcast, learning center, and speaker's bureau. The Clearinghouse aims to empower those responding to sexual assault in Tribal communities through essential resources and education to improve responses.
We are committed to making this transition as smooth and seamless as possible. If you encounter any problems with the ISAAC website or the Learning Center during this transition, please contact Kerri Knadle at kerriknadle@forensicnurses.org.
To prioritize our focus at IAFN’s Annual Conference, some staff will be onsite in Denver and unavailable through Aug. 30. There will be a slower response to all emails and requests submitted through Aug. 30. Following the annual conference, IAFN will close from Monday, Sept. 2 through Friday, Sept. 6 to embrace collective care and rest. IAFN staff will respond to emails upon returning to office on Sept. 9.
The IAFN ISAAC project is supported by Project No. 2019-SA-AX-K001 awarded by the Office on Violence Against Women, U.S. Department of Justice.
