A plea from sexual assault support services in Waterloo Region, and from women’s’ rights groups across the country; don’t cut off our financial support. A department schedule issued months ago indicated funding for multiple programs will soon run out. Sara Casselman is the Executive Director of the Sexual Assault Support Centre of Waterloo Region (SASC). Casselman notes Waterloo Region is a key area in need of these supports. She adds Waterloo Region also has the third highest rates of sex trafficking in the country.
