The Victoria Sexual Assault Clinic is now open!
The Victoria Sexual Assault Centre (VSAC) is excited to announce that we have opened a new clinic in our community specifically designed to meet the unique needs of survivors of sexual assault.
First of its kind in British Columbia, the clinic shifts key services and supports for recent survivors of sexual assault from the hospital and police stations to one location, the Victoria Sexual Assault Clinic. Our goal is to create a warm, welcoming centre where the healing process can begin as soon as a survivor walks through the door.
Developed by VSAC with enthusiastic collaboration from Forensic Nurse Examiners, Island Health, local police and RCMP, the Victoria Sexual Assault Clinic will allow a survivor to have the option of accessing a multitude of services in one location. The Victoria Sexual Assault Clinic will provide survivors of sexual assault with access to:
- Medical and forensic exams
- Crisis support
- Police Interviews
- Crown Interviews
- Counselling services and other community supports
The Victoria Sexual Assault Clinic will be housed in the Victoria Community Response Centre and will share space with the the Victoria Child Abuse Prevention & Counselling Centre’s (VCAPCC) Victoria Child Advocacy Centre.
The Victoria Sexual Assault Clinic was made possible by the generosity of individual donors as well as from the support of the Ministry of Justice, United Way and the City of Victoria.
The Victoria Sexual Assault Clinic is now open and is located in the same building as the Victoria Sexual Assault Centre (3060 Cedar Hill Rd.)
To access the services of the Victoria Sexual Assault Clinic, please call 250-383-3232.
For anyone who has been recently sexually assaulted and is interested in accessing the Victoria Sexual Assault Clinic which includes crisis support, medical/forensic care or reporting to police, please call our 24hr crisis & info line to access support: 250-383-3232
