A HUGE shoutout and heartfelt thank you to Julie Sweeney at Insight to Action Wellness! 💚

Julie generously donated food and personal hygiene items to our community giveaway box following her recent clothing swap!

We love seeing community members come together to make everyday essentials more accessible while creating spaces where all bodies are welcomed, celebrated, and respected.

Julie's next clothing swap will be happening in April 2027, so keep an eye out!

Thank you, Julie, for your generosity, kindness, and commitment to supporting our community. Small acts of care can make a big difference.

Good Morning Everyone!

Just a friendly reminder that Yoga with Billie is happening this evening!

We have extra yoga mats available for anyone who needs one, so no worries if you don't have your own. And, of course, there will be snacks!

Looking forward to seeing everyone for an evening of movement, relaxation, and a little time for ourselves.

Sometimes, healing needs a little more room to grow.

We believe healing can happen in many different ways, and sometimes, stepping outside the traditional counselling space can open the door to something more.

Paths of Courage is now accepting referrals.

Accessing support should feel simple, welcoming, and stress-free.

At Paths of Courage, we want the referral and application process to feel as supportive as the journey itself.

This short, guided video will gently walk you through where to find the referral and application forms on our website, helping you take that next step with confidence.

The OCRCC has responded to the Cornell 57 allegations.

Another survivor. Another institution. Another investigation.

Another reminder of why survivor voices must be heard, believed, and supported.

Sexual violence is not an isolated issue. It is a systemic one. And accountability cannot end with an investigation.

We believe survivors. We stand with survivors. We will not be silent.

Solidarity

We are a proud member of the Ontario Coalition of R**e Crisis Centres (OCRCC - Sexual Assault Support).

The OCRCC brings together sexual assault centres from across Ontario to strengthen survivor support, advocate for systemic change, and work collectively toward ending sexual violence.

Last week, our Executive Director spent two days in Toronto with incredible leaders from sexual assault centres across the province - sharing ideas, tackling challenges, and strengthening the relationships that make our movement so powerful.

We're grateful to be part of this passionate, dedicated community of advocates!

Sexual violence doesn’t only thrive because of those who cause harm.

It thrives when others see it, hear it, joke about it, excuse it—or stay silent.

“Bro code” is not loyalty when it protects harmful behaviour.

Call it out. Step in.

Your silence protects the culture.
Your intervention can disrupt it.

Believe survivors. Be an active bystander.
