Interview with Jessica Ladd, the creator of Callisto: A College Sexual Assault Reporting Program by Suzanna BobadillaSuzanna Bobadilla: What is Callisto and how will it work?Jessica Ladd: Callisto is a college sexual assault recording and reporting system. College sexual assault survivors will be able to go to their school-specific Callisto website, fill out a form online documenting their assault, and securely store their time-stamped record. They will be able to access their record again at any time. Survivors interested in reporting their assault can then receive a clear explanation of their reporting options and, if they wish, directly send their report to their chosen authority. Survivors can also elect to just store their record for now, but automatically report their assault to their chosen authority if someone else reports the same assailant.SB: How will incorporating the experience and suggestions of survivors make Callisto a more effective tool?JL: Callisto is built by survivors, for survivors. I myself am a college sexual assault survivor, and we have involved survivors throughout the ideation, design, and development process. We have conducted surveys, interviews, and focus groups with hundreds of survivors and advocates. Survivors help us decide on the branding for Callisto, the feature set, the graphic design, and the user flow. They help us to create a product that truly meets their needs and help them feel in control of the process.“Read the full piece here | Photo source -- source link
