What is this week about?
Join Sexual Violence Prevention and Response Services and other campus partners and other post-secondary institutions and municipalities across Ontario in recognizing the importance of consent in all our lives and relationships. The timing of Consent Week has been chosen to recognize that during the first weeks of school there is a significant increase in sexual violence. SVPRS with other campus partners is hosting events, an awareness campaign, and training workshops during this week, and will be giving away posters and having boothing across campus on September 19th to recognize the importance of believing survivors.
