Description:
This project will offer on-line, phone or in-person intake, referral and support for men in the British Columbia CAF community who are survivors of sexual assault. MTC will also develop a communications and advertising campaign to coincide with the increased attention on the issue of male military sexual trauma from the opening of the period for survivors to submit claims for compensation as a result of the National Defence Sexual Misconduct Class Action Final Settlement. Over the course of the funding cycle MTC will also offer a drop-in group format once a month, a Stage 1 trauma group - a 10 week psycho educational group; a Stage 2 trauma group - a 10 week (post stage 1) healing and recovery group where participants explore their trauma in more depth; and/or a Dad's Group - a 10 week group looking at how trauma affects parenting. All groups are co-facilitated and clients are pre-screened/interviewed before the group starts. The groups will be evaluated by the participants and staff.
