This project created community resources through a collaborative and community-based research project between Wilfrid Laurier University and the Sexual Assault Centre of Brant. The project interviewed members of the SAC Brant team on a variety of themes connected to anti-violence work. The responses to these themes have been compiled to provide first-hand accounts from staff, volunteers and board members on SAC Brant’s approach to sexual and gendered violence work. The work produced brochures that were able to articulate SAC Brant to be used in making community referrals.
