At the Northwestern Ontario Women’s Centre, we believe survivors of sexual violence.

We are partnering with Faye Peterson House to offer a 6-part sexual violence education series. Sessions are open to self-identified women and girls (ages 18+) and will take place once a month from 6:30-8 pm at the Northwestern Ontario Women’s Centre (278 Bay St, Suite #201).

Join us on Wednesday, February 4th for our next monthly sexual violence education session: Intimate Partner Sexual Violence, where we will discuss and unpack coercive sex and sexual violence in intimate relationships. We are excited to have guest speaker Carolynne Kreuger, Domestic Violence Crown Attorney with MAG join us.
