As part of Victim and Survivor Crime Week, the center is hosting several craft events themed “Postcards of Courage,” a series of workshops aimed at creating messages of support for those in need.

“These postcards, each a symbol of your support, will be donated to Sexual Assault Counseling Center service users to provide them with messages of hope and solidarity on their healing journey,” Kamloops Sexual Assault Counseling Center said.
