PCAR received American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) funds via the Pennsylvania Commission on Crime and Delinquency to increase the number of sexual assault nurse examiners. The goal of the SANE Project is to train more than 100 more nurses across the Commonwealth to improve care and services to victims and to increase the marketability of registered nurses. The first PCAR facilitated course was held at Penn State Hershey Medical Center September 13-17, 2010.
