FREE Trauma Counselling
We offer free short-term trauma counseling to any victims of sexual violence that do not have insurance or coverage through a work EAP program. Our counselors provide a safe place to start your healing journey.
Advocacy & Support
You are in the driver’s seat. Our Advocate/Systems Navigator is there to support you every step of the way, including assistance navigating the legal system and accompaniment to court if desired.
Transportation Services
Transportation should never be a barrier for victims accessing the necessary supports. We provide hospital transportations and/or other transportation services as needed.
Hospital Accompaniment
Going to the hospital can seem daunting after an assault. We offer hospital accompaniment services to support victims of sexual violence throughout the process of a forensic nurse examination and can even provide childcare if needed.
Education/Awareness
We offer education and workshops to spread awareness to challenge the many myths and misconceptions surrounding sexual violence.
