This week is victims and survivors of crime week and Aurora House here in The Pas is hosting an event to commemorate the week.
A vigil will be held outside the town office at 6PM on May 30th. Aurora House has been using social media to increase awareness on these issues and they are preparing a brochure that will highlight the impacts and resources.
Individuals affected by crime may not always acknowledge their victimization but still experience the emotional and psychological damage and the intent of aurora house is to make people aware of these impacts and to encourage them to seek the support they need.
The theme for this year’s Victims and Survivors of crime week is “The Power of collaboration.
