In Quebec, in 2023-2024, 2548 reports were retained by youth protection in connection with a situation of sexual abuse or risk of sexual abuse (Youth Protection Directors, 2024). These statistics are believed to be unrepresentative of reality, since they represent only the facts that have been reported to the authorities and have been deemed to be well-founded in their eyes. Thus, all unreported sexual violence, or all victims who have not been believed, represent an invisible portion absent from these statistics. The aim of this presentation is to make professionals aware of the extent of the problem of sexual violence in childhood and adolescence, and of best practices in prevention and intervention in this field.
Draw the Line Against Transphobic Violence is a free, 90-minute, instructor-led webinar that will help participants recognize harmful dynamics, and build skills for fostering cultures of consent, gender inclusion, and healthier relationships overall. This session is designed for students, educators, administrators, and staff in both secondary and post-secondary schools in Canada. Join us in creating awareness that leads to action. When we empower students, staff, and educators to take steps towards allyship, we can build inclusive schools.

Have you listened to the RESOLVing Violence Podcast yet?
The province of Saskatchewan is home to a vibrant research community and hundreds of organizations and service providers working to prevent, respond to, and assist with recovery from violence and abuse.
Through this podcast, we hope to facilitate that transfer of knowledge from the research community to these applied stakeholders and people with lived experience, to make staying up to date on current research that much more accessible and efficient.
