Webinar: Who Is Most at Risk? Teens, Sexual Violence Online, and Help-Seeking
Nearly one in three Canadian teens has experienced technology-facilitated sexual violence, from unwanted sexual images to pressure to share nudes, sextortion and deepfakes. But risk is not shared equally. Drawing on a national survey of over 1,000 teens aged 13–18, Dr Kaitlynn Mendes (Western University, DIY: Digital Safety) shows that girls, 2SLGBTQ+ teens, neurodivergent teens and teens with mental health conditions face up to twice the risk of their peers, with harm rising sharply after age 14. This talk also looks at who teens turn to when something happens, and whether that help works.

Men Like Me: Engaging Men as Allies in Preventing Gender-Based Violence
Men Like Me (MLM) is a bilingual, peer-led prevention program for multi-barriered fathers with young children, providing culturally appropriate spaces to learn, connect, and grow as equitable partners and engaged parents. This session explores MLM’s design and implementation, highlighting how peer-led facilitation builds accountability and models healthy behaviours. Attendees will learn inclusive strategies, key implementation lessons, and promising practices for reducing stigma and building trust with men to prevent GBV and family violence.
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.
