💜Healing starts with a conversation. Reaching out after experiencing sexual trauma takes immense courage, and we are here to offer a safe and supportive space for survivors to explore their feelings, develop coping strategies, and begin healing. We provide free sexual violence counselling for survivors and their supporters—whether you're a parent, partner, or friend. While there’s currently a waiting list for counselling, you can join support groups and workshops or access our 24-hour support line at 📞519-741-8633 as you wait to be matched with a counsellor. For more information about our support groups and workshops, visit sascwr.org/groups. For intake and to join the counselling waitlist, visit https://lnkd.in/gzb8BfXX. You are not alone. We're here for you every step of the way. 🤝

🏠 Your Experience Without Housing Counts! YWCA Cambridge is inviting women & gender-diverse individuals (with or without children) in Waterloo Region to be part of the Point-In-Time (PiT) Count on October 22nd. 🔍 What is the PiT Count? The PiT Count captures a snapshot of how many people are unhoused in our region on a given day, along with their experiences, through an optional survey. You can choose to be included in just the count or to complete an additional survey for a $20 gift card (Giant Tiger, Dollarama, or Talize). Your privacy and safety come first. 💡 Why it matters: Women’s services often lack funding because of gaps in data. By participating, you help provide the information needed to advocate for better services that can end and prevent homelessness for women and their families. ✨ Who should participate? If you’re currently in a temporary living situation, such as: - Pay-per-night hotel/motel/airbnb - Tent, vehicle, or public space - Staying with friends, family, or community members - Couch surfing - Working to leave an abuser - In a human trafficking situation - Using hospitals or public buildings overnight Your experience can help us close the data gap and push for better resources and funding. More info on in-person participation coming soon! 📧 Email: pit@ywcacambridge.ca 📞 Call: 519-223-9957 📢 Please share this post to help spread the word! Every voice counts!
