Youth Survivors

Home / Safety / Youth Survivors

Gen Z are the most vulnerable to sexual violence.

If this is your experience, support is just a text away.

Is someone making you feel pressured or threatened to do things that make you uncomfortable? It may be happening on campus, at work or within your circle of friends.

Maybe it's your long-term partner or someone you just hooked up with on a dating app.

You don't owe anyone an explanation, but you don't need to carry this alone.

Whether the violence happened recently or years ago, our professionally trained counsellors can help you deal with it. iDetermine.ca provides confidential 24/7 support via chat or text. Even if you don't feel like sharing right now, the list of resources on our site can guide you to the help you may need.

I would like to understand so I can help you best. Take your time and start wherever you feel comfortable.

Gender-based violence knows no boundaries.

You could be experiencing sexual harassment online - cyberstalking, unsolicited sexting, sextortion and revenge porn. It can make you feel exposed, manipulated and unsafe.

Know that we are here for you.
