Anonymous Disclosures

The Sexualized Violence Resource Office (SVRO) is pleased to announce that starting February 1, 2024, we are piloting an anonymous Disclosure service for anyone impacted by sexualized violence.

An anonymous Disclosure is an option for those who want to share an experience of sexualized violence without sharing their name or any identifying information. This is an online service; however, you can also make an anonymous Disclosure by calling 250-721-8021 or texting 236-638-3710.

While the SVRO is happy to support you in making an anonymous Disclosure, we are not able to receive an anonymous Report. This is because we cannot investigate anonymous allegations while being procedurally fair at the same time.

Please watch this video for more information.

During an anonymous Disclosure you can:

Share your story;
Get connected to supports;
Receive options for safety planning;
Get advice and coaching;
Learn your options under the Sexualized Violence Prevention and Response policy.
