So what kind of services do you provide at Survivors Hope, uh, Crisis Centre?

Yeah.

So one of our primary programs is called SARH, so that stands for Sexual Assault Recovery and Healing as an acronym, and under that program, we provide long-term counseling, as well as short-term counseling for individuals of all genders 13 years and up who have experienced sexual violence either personally or they feel impacted by the experience of a loved one.

And of course, as a nonprofit, all of our programs and services are free to individuals who can refer, self-refer, or get referred from another community agency.

There's no wrong door.

They can call us, they can email us, they can go on our website and just reach out and say, you know, "I experienced this.

I live in an Interlake Eastern area, and I'd like some support." Another important part of our work is our crisis program, which provides 24/7 availability for our advocates to attend to Interlake Eastern emergency rooms or RCMP detachments when survivors are reporting their experiences of sexual assault, to help them navigate that process and advocate for them with the systems that they're facing during those difficult conversations, as well as provide follow-up care.

So, uh, how do we, how do we encourage those, uh, to, to take that step, to ask for the help?
