In 2021, police reported 114,132 victims of intimate partner violence. We know the number of those affected is much higher than this. This funding will help protect more women from becoming victims in the future. news.gov.bc.ca/28488
@KristaLoughton I utilized the Men’s Therapy Center in my early recovery around 2005 when it was then known as the Men’s Trauma Center. It was an important resource to me at the time and provided no-fee services that was very beneficial to me.

@therapy_men This would be a total disaster for mental health in the region. Youth who've had encounters with the justice system, guys who are ready to heal their trauma from childhood sexual abuse, men who want to have better relationships. They all deserve support. @bcndp please help.
MTC provides very essential services. ❤️ @bcndp please do whatever it takes to keep it open and thriving. As a social worker, I'm really tired of hearing my colleagues exhausted from not only doing extremely challenging and essential work, but also facing such instability.
With a heavy heart The Men’s Therapy Centre is announcing that we will be closing our doors without financial support for our core programming. Please share this news with our community to help support the men accessing our services. #menstherapycentre
@therapy_men I'm so sorry to read this.😥 Now more than ever, ppl need support. #BCpoli
@BarbaraRKay This is absurd and ridiculous. Protecting trans people, recognizing their existence, rights, and place in our communities and you say laboratories for infants and ending parental relationships? All we’re taking about is an m,f, x or nothing on a birth certificate by request.

Sharing intimate images without consent is wrong. If this happens to you don’t suffer in silence. New legislation will provide ways to get these images taken offline and a more effective way to seek compensation from the harm caused @CdnChildProtect news.gov.bc.ca/28321
When people can reach their full potential, our communities & economy are stronger, better places for everyone. In celebration of #InternationalWomensDay, this week at @BCLegislature we are focusing on legislation that eliminates barriers to #GenderEquity.
Our government is helping to make the internet a safer place for youth and children. Thank you to my colleague @NikiSharma2 for introducing this legislation (Intimate Images Protection Act). I am honoured to have played a role in it. #bcpoli
I want to thank everyone who got us to today. The Intimate Images Protection Act was achieved by so many. Thank you to the survivors, the advocates, the staff, @GraceALore, @MitziDeanBC, and @kellipaddon. All your work is making a difference everyday. news.gov.bc.ca/28321
