Have you, or has someone you know, been sexually assaulted?

The Sexual Assault Support Services are for sexual assault survivors on the Southern Gulf Islands. The program helps survivors access free and confidential emergency support, ongoing support and individual counselling. The Sexual Assault Support Helpline is a free and confidential service.

If you’re unsure if you’ve been sexually assaulted, you can learn more in our Resources section.

Are you looking for support for children who have been exposed to violence?

The PEACE Program addresses the needs of children and youths aged 3 to 18 years who have been exposed to violence and abuse in their family homes. The program also helps parents understand how violence and abuse affects their children.
