''Manitoba Justice Victim Services is undertaking a project to deliver training, information and education on the topic of sexual violence. The goal of the project is to help all Manitobans become better informed about sexual assault and how to best support survivors.
The guide You Have Options: Help After Sexual Assault is designed to help you:
- recognize and understand sexual assault
- know your rights
- understand the criminal justice system, including making a police report and going to court
- stay safe
- know your options
- get counselling, support and healing
Additionally, a series of workshops will be held across Manitoba for both community members and service providers. The Manitoba Justice Victim Services website will be updated with information about upcoming workshops throughout the year.''
