Edmonton sex assault centre pauses new clients, blames Alberta government for cutting funds
Description
March 11, 2025
The Sexual Assault Centre of Edmonton has stopped accepting new clients because it says the Alberta government has cut $1.8 million in extra funding it had been receiving to reduce backlogs. SACE had hired more staff to bring wait lists down to three months from 18 months. As Lisa MacGregor explains, there are fears sex assault survivors will be left without the support they need.
