Trauma-informed victim’s support and advocacy.
All victims of abuse, maltreatment and sexual misconduct deserve the right to access support.
Our services assist complainants in sport complaints processes or in making disclosures to the relevant authorities. We help athletes and parents navigate the complexities of the complaints process and provide trauma-informed advocacy and advisory services so that complainants make informed decisions for their unique situation.
We are committed to prevention through education. We provide training and education sessions in consent & rape culture and abuse & maltreatment catered to sport participants 16+, as well as coaches, parents and any other interested parties wishing to understand the prevalence of sexualized violence in our society.
We engage in pilot and research projects and reports focused on abuse and maltreatment in the sport environment and the systems that enable harm, hinder positive change and prevent progress.
Silence is an abuser’s best friend.
