First Responder to Sexual Assault and Abuse Training
Sat, Jun 15 & Sun, Jun 16

The Students’ Association of NorQuest College, along with partners at the NorQuest College Centre for Growth and Harmony are presenting this course developed by the Association of Alberta Sexual Assault Services (AASAS). This training is intended to build the capacity of professionals, paraprofessionals and community members to assess and respond effectively to disclosures of sexual assault and sexual abuse.

Survivors who receive safe and supportive responses to disclosures of sexual violence are more likely to reach out for help from medical and counselling services and/or report to police. First Responder to Sexual Assault and Abuse Training is a comprehensive two day training, inclusive of the full continuum of sexual violence and across the lifespan.
