After a sexual assault is reported, the victim and parent come to the Boreal Centre to receive the services they need. Children immediately receive medical, legal and psychological services on-site. Social workers guide the family through the legal process and the victim quickly receives specialized therapeutic services. The parent receives the necessary assistance and advice to support the family.
