Our Funder
Kawartha Sexual Assault Centre was one of 150 agencies from across Canada to apply for the funding and one of 17 organizations to successfully receive the funding to date. The work and members of these community-based projects are connected to the Knowledge Hub, also funded by PHAC, which facilitates knowledge translation and exchange activities.
The Knowledge Hub is led by the Centre for Research & Education on Violence Against Women & Children at Western University. It aims to: (1) establish a Trauma- and Violence-Informed Health Promotion Community of Practice among members of each project; (2) promote knowledge transfer activities for Community of Practice members and the broader community; and (3) develop common process and outcome indicators to evaluate trauma-informed health promotion through the investment.
