Funded through the Ministry of Children and Family Services.

At enCompass, we use the terms ‘survivor’ and ‘victim’ interchangeably, recognizing that each individual may relate more closely to one term over the other. We honour and respect the diverse experiences and identities of those affected by family violence and strive to provide inclusive, compassionate support for all.
