Sexual Assault Support Centre Ottawa

Sexual Assault Support Centre Ottawa The Sexual Assault Support Centre (SASC) is a non-profit charity and community based organization established in 1983.

Our purpose is to provide survivor directed support services by women, to women, who have experienced sexual violence. We strive to increase public awareness and offer training on the issues and effects of violence against women. We also engage in action to pressure for change in the structures and systems that contribute to the practice, maintenance, and tolerance of violence, oppression, discrim

ination and exploitation. Our work is informed by the principles of a feminist, anti-oppression framework, and our vision is a society free of all forms of violence.

Large-scale sporting events can shift routines, increase alcohol use, and intensify social dynamics. These factors can contribute to increased experiences of gender-based and sexual violence.

Awareness is especially important in the coming days. This is a reminder to stay aware, support one another, and reach out when needed.

In Canada, 1 in 6 people who menstruate have experienced period poverty. Beyond financial barriers, stigma and shame continue to silence conversations around menstruation (WAGE 2025). Many individuals face limited access to products, inadequate education, and a lack of supportive resources.

These barriers whether financial, social, or educational make it harder for people to access the care they need and deserve.

Today, we shed light on all of these realities and work toward breaking the stigma surrounding periods.

For support, resources or access to menstrual products, please contact:
