Recent trends: Sexual violence prevention education

Education prevents sexual violence: it offers ways to challenge sexual assault myths and victim-blaming, and provide information about consent, your rights and where to get support in your community.

In recent years, 96% of Ontario sexual assault centres provided prevention education to organizations or groups in their community. Learn more, below.

 

This infographic was compiled by Ontario Coalition of Rape Crisis Centres in 2022, with data provided by 26 of our member centres.
