No matter where you are in your healing journey, SSAIC is here for you.🤍

Counselling may feel intimidating, especially when you’re not sure what to expect. At SSAIC, our trauma-informed counsellors strive to create a space that is safe, supportive, and centered around you. Your experiences, your pace, and your choices.

Whether you’re just beginning to explore support or returning to counselling, we’re here to walk alongside you. Our team will do their best to support you with compassion, understanding, and care whenever you’re ready.

If you have been impacted by sexualized violence, whether as a survivor or a secondary, help is available.

To book an appointment, call our office at (306) 244-2294. From there, you’ll connect with our intake counsellor, who will guide you through a few questions and help you find a day and time that works.

You don’t have to go through it alone. 💜

Where would we be without them! ⭐

Happy International Volunteer Day to all the incredible volunteers who have helped build SSAIC into what it is today.

When our center first opened, we had just one paid employee and three dedicated volunteers. As we grew, it was our volunteers who stepped up by answering our crisis line, providing advocacy, and leading our school-based abuse prevention programs.

Even today, we continue to meet so many community members who were part of laying our foundation.

We couldn’t be more grateful for each and every one of them.

Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts. 💛

Thanks to our partnership, SSAIC's community-based programs such as "No is a Full Sentence", and "I'm the Boss of Me" have had a safe, accessible, and inclusive space to present.📚

Shame and trauma can be complex. 🤍

Shame can come from many different places; whether it’s connected to what was experienced, the impacts that followed, or the difficulty in understanding or accepting those impacts.

But the shame you may feel is not a flaw. It is a natural response, it is your nervous system’s way of trying to protect you. 🧠

However shame shows up, it’s important to remember that you are not alone. 🤝

The shame surrounding sexualized violence is not yours to carry. SSAIC is here to support you when you need it.🫶

Survivor stories are powerful, but they’re also deeply personal, and never owed to us.

In our newest blog, "A Beginner’s Guide to Survivor Stories," we explore how to approach these narratives with care, unpack the impact of r**e culture on how we listen, and share a collection of memoirs and writings that have resonated with us.

From lived experiences to reflections on trauma and healing, this guide invites you to learn, unlearn, and engage with empathy.

Head to ssaic.ca/blog. Read with care. Listen with an open heart. 🤍

If reporting feels right for you, SSAIC is here to support you 🤍

Reporting sexualized violence isn’t always a survivor’s first choice;and that’s okay. You have the right to report, and you also have the right to be informed, supported, and in control throughout the process 🧭

Choosing to report or not does not change the validity of your experience. Reporting is a deeply personal decision, and you don’t have to navigate it alone 🤝

If you’re looking for support in making that decision, need care after reporting, or want to better understand your options, contact SSAIC at 📞306-244-2294, 📧intake@ssaic.ca, or visit 🌐ssaic.ca

Each year during Sexual Violence Awareness and Prevention Month (May), SSAIC with our sister organizations runs the Choose to See campaign, an initiative that highlights gaps in sexual violence understanding and challenges our communities to choose awareness.

This year’s theme is Choose to Unlearn.🔄

The messages we grow up with about masculinity, dating, and consent shape more than we realize. We want to directly engage men and boys who are increasingly targeted by patriarchal messaging and the online pull of “manosphere” culture. This campaign welcomes men into prevention work, not as adversaries, but as partners creating space for reflection, accountability, and learning.🤝

That’s where you and your story come in.💬

We’re inviting men and young men (including cisgender and transgender men) to anonymously share their experiences navigating masculinity and how it impacts them. Your voice can help challenge harmful narratives, spark conversation, and support meaningful change.✨

Share your experience through the link in our bio.🔗

SSAIC recognizes World Health Day. 🌍

The World Health Organization (WHO) and public health experts recognize sexualized violence as a major public health issue due to its long-term health impacts.

It has widespread and severe consequences for survivors, affecting their physical, mental, and emotional well-being.

Each survivor’s story is different.💛 Impacts may be significant or minimal, but every survivor’s experience is valid and deserves care, compassion, and support.

SSAIC wants survivors to know they are not alone.🤝 However your impacts may show up, they do not define who you are. You are capable and deserving of defining your own story.✨

If you have experienced sexualized violence and are navigating these impacts, you are not alone. SSAIC is here for you, offering free and confidential services, including counselling and a 24-hour crisis line. 📞You can reach us at (306) 244-2294.

Consent is, and always will be, clear, ongoing, reversible, and specific.

Just because someone said yes to one thing doesn’t mean anything goes. Just because you’ve been partners for 2, 12, or 45 years doesn’t mean consent is a given. Just because you went home together after a night out doesn’t mean consent should be assumed.

Consents criteria is clear and it matters; not just to avoid doing something illegal... but because you don’t want to harm or violate another person.

Consent is the baseline. No ifs, ands, or buts.

If you’d like to learn more about consent, visit ssaic.ca and check out our learning and resources page.

Want your practice to be the top-listed Clinic in Saskatoon?

SSAIC Can’t Wait to go Out of Business!

75-80% of our clients experience sexualized violence at the hands of someone they know and trust—a family member, a co-worker, a romantic partner…can you imagine the pain and confusion that causes?

As Saskatoon’s major service provider to victims and survivors of sexual violence, we work with clients of all genders, races, religions, and romantic orientations to sort through the complex emotions of guilt, shame, and loss of self-esteem, in addition to life-altering consequences like dropping out of school, the inability to continue employment, and the loss of friends or family.

We don’t question the validity of a victim’s claims and we don’t push for the traumatic details. We let the client set the agenda and pace of their unique healing process.
