Survivors deserve better. 💛

The younger generation deserves better. 🙌

Our culture deserves better. ✊

In Canada, 1 in 3 women and 1 in 6 men will experience sexualized violence in their lifetime.

With the lack of consent education, the normalization of r**e culture, and the absence of accountability, harm continues to be minimized, misunderstood, and repeated.

We deserve better, and it’s on all of us to create it. 🤝

Do your part: believe, and support survivors, engage and advocate for prevention education, interrupt r**e culture, and overall, be a safe person. 🤍

Calling all medical professionals (particularly nurses, physicians, paramedics, and future healthcare providers), we’ve got your professional development hours covered for 2026. 🩺📚

Whether you work in hospitals, clinics, community health, emergency care, mental health services, or are currently training to enter the healthcare field, this training is for you!

You will encounter patients who are survivors of child sexual abuse and sexualized violence (the statistics tell us that it is inevitable).

Many survivors won’t disclose this directly, but it remains an important part of their story and can influence how they interact with healthcare systems and providers.

Supporting Survivors of Sexualized Violence Training™ is a six-hour virtual course that will equip you with the tools to respond ethically, compassionately, and confidently to survivors, while strengthening your understanding of trauma-informed care.

What to expect:

✍🏼 6 hours of continuing education
✍🏼 a Certificate of Completion
✍🏼 a printable digital Participant Workbook
✍🏼 practical tools and skills to apply in healthcare settings
✍🏼 subject-matter expertise on trauma-informed communication with survivors
✍🏼 confidence in responding appropriately and empathetically to patients

Not convinced yet? Here's what previous attendees had to say…

💬 "I really enjoyed the training and would highly recommend it for professional and personal reasons. I have definitely learned how to provide great support without bias."

💬 "This presentation was amazing! Loved the interactive piece to it as well as the breakout rooms. The content was straightforward and helpful and I am super grateful for the other participant's contributions!"

Upcoming sessions:

📅 Tuesday, March 17th (in-person)
📅 Wednesday, April 29th (virtual)

Pricing:

💲 $190 (virtual), $250 (in-person)
🎓 Nonprofit/student pricing available

The queen of empathy and compassion has spoken, folks. Better trust her.

Brené does not claim that these practices are easy, nor that we have to be perfect at them.

But her ideas sure do sound lovely, don't they?

Maybe today, we can choose bravery. Or we can rest, and try again tomorrow.

As the need for support grows, so does the importance of keeping it accessible. 💜

Our 50/50 raffle is more than just a chance to win, it’s a way to help remove barriers so survivors can access care when they need it most.

In a 2025 report, Rethinking Justice for Survivors of Sexual Violence: A Systemic Investigation, the Office of the Federal Ombudsperson for Victims of Crime found that the demand for counselling services for survivors of sexualized violence increased from 43% to 69%, while the number of survivors accessing sexual assault centres rose from 30% to 43%.

More survivors are reaching out for support. With the help of our community, organizations like SSAIC, we can continue to show up for survivors when it matters most.

SSAIC Can’t Wait to go Out of Business!

75-80% of our clients experience sexualized violence at the hands of someone they know and trust—a family member, a co-worker, a romantic partner…can you imagine the pain and confusion that causes?

As Saskatoon’s major service provider to victims and survivors of sexual violence, we work with clients of all genders, races, religions, and romantic orientations to sort through the complex emotions of guilt, shame, and loss of self-esteem, in addition to life-altering consequences like dropping out of school, the inability to continue employment, and the loss of friends or family.

We don’t question the validity of a victim’s claims and we don’t push for the traumatic details. We let the client set the agenda and pace of their unique healing process.
