Sexual Abuse Centre Thunder Bay

The Sexual Abuse Centre Thunder Bay (formerly the Thunder Bay Sexual Assault/Sexual Abuse Counselling and Crisis Centre) specializes in providing help, support, counselling and information for women and men 14-years of age and older who have experienced sexual assault, sexual abuse and/or sexual harassment at any time in their lives.

These services are free and confidential.

We feel it is important for you to know:

You are not responsible for someone else’s abusive actions.
What happened to you is not okay.
Feelings of embarrassment, guilt, fear, anger, self-blame, numbness, and mistrust are all normal reactions. We are here to help.
It’s important to seek medical attention if you need it.
Collection of forensic evidence (a “rape kit”) can be frozen to give you more time to decide what to do. Find out more.
You do not have to involve the police.
You have choices, and the right to make those choices yourself.
You have the right to get the help and support you need.
You are not alone.
