•Individuals are free to make their own life choices and each person has the opportunity to learn and to grow.

•We provide a safe environment and maintain confidentiality.

•Public education and advocacy are vital for eliminating sexual violence.

•Teamwork is essential; volunteers are crucial to CASASC and provide a link to communities.

•Offenders should be held accountable for their actions.

#IRespect Campaign:

The lack of respect is one of the root causes of many problems; bullying, harassment, violence, depression, sickness, war and many others. We don’t have a magic wand to make this world instantly respectful but we can all make a difference in our life, our workplace and our community. More respect means better relationships, less employee turnover, less absenteeism, better health, less violence in our community, better grades at school and many other benefits. By promoting respect for others, you promote respect for yourself which is the most important. Join the #iRespect campaign. Together, we can make this world a better place.
