OMAHA, Neb., July 12, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- VidaNyx, a leading evidence management platform, is honoring and celebrating the specialized professionals who play a key role in child abuse investigations by establishing July 11-15, 2022 as the inaugural National Forensic Interviewers Week. Just four years ago VidaNyx set out to solve a very specific problem – how to use technology for good to innovate a better way to protect recorded interviews of child survivors of sexual assault.

To date over 115,000 child forensic interviews have been protected, saving over $19MM on the costs of DVD creation, distribution, long term storage, and transcription, as well as over 95,000 people hours.

Key Points: 
  • Forensic Interviewers provide developmentally sensitive, culturally appropriate, legally defensible forensic interviews of children and adolescents when an allegation of abuse has been made or if they have witnessed a violent crime.
  • "Forensic Interviewers deserve special recognition for the vital role they play in giving voice to children who have experienced unspeakable trauma," says Sara Boyd, CEO of VidaNyx.
  • "They quickly build rapport and trust, and many times they are the first person to whom a survivor of abuse discloses their entire story.
  • Trusted by over 8,000 agencies throughout the US, VidaNyx is easy to use, HIPAA Compliant and VOCA approved.
