For Victims of Sexual Assault ᴴᴰ

The topic of sexual violence is still considered quite taboo especially among the Muslim community. However, avoiding its discussion has done little to combat the issue and perhaps even made it worse.

This is a video dedicated to anyone who has been sexually assaulted. The video is not meant to tell you what you should do, rather it has been made to let you know that you have support, that there are people who care about your well-being, and that you have nothing to be ashamed about.

Featured guests in this video:

Sameera Qureshi - Director of Sexuality Education & Training (Heart: Women and Girls)
Saeeda Irfan - VP Counselling (Naseeha: Muslim Youth Hotline)
Huma Saeedi - Psychometrist (CAMH)
Saba R. - Manager of Counselor self-care (Naseeha: Muslim Youth Hotline).
