In Québec, 53% of sexual assault victims are under 18 years old. One out of five girls and one out of 10 boys report being sexually assaulted by the age of 18. These are excellent reasons to prioritize providing services to children and teens who are the victims of sexual violence, and also to mobilize the community, partners and decision-makers in order to build a protective community for our young people.
At Marie-Vincent Foundation, children and teens are at the core of all our services, from prevention to therapy to training.
