Sexual Assault Support Centre of WR

SASC is stepping away from active use of this platform. We don’t support divisiveness, toxic masculinity, racism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, and a lack of care for others. Connect with us on other platforms- Instagram, Facebook and LinkedIn. #LeavingTwitter #LeavingX

Today, we remember those affected by conflict and honour the resilience of survivors everywhere. We stand in solidarity for peace, safety, and healing.

Help us make a difference! Your support in purchasing supplies and books from our Pub Ed Amazon Wishlist empowers our public education programs to reach more people in our community. To support our program, scan the QR code below or visit bit.ly/pubedamazonwis….

We are reaching out to survivors of sexual violence in Waterloo Region. This week has been especially painful. It’s heartbreaking to witness men who have harmed women and other equity-deserving groups rise to positions of power. Please remember: We are here for you.

Join us for the launch of ''And Sometimes They Kill You'' by Pamela Cross! On December 6th, 2024—National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women, SASC, in collaboration with WCSWR, is honoured to host Pamela Cross. For registration see poster👇
