Survivors Are Waiting For Support
The Unbearable Facts
Funding for the Sexual Assault Centre of Edmonton (SACE) has not kept up with demand. Today, survivors as young as 3 years old are waiting for the essential, specialized counselling services they desperately need. Without more support, our waitlist continues to grow.
As Edmonton’s only safe space for all survivors to heal, we can’t wait any longer. Help us raise critical funds to ensure everyone can access the support they need, when they need it.
