The Regina Women's Centre is a progressive, feminist, pro-choice organization dedicated to working toward a non-violent and equitable society by empowering individuals who experience various forms of violence and abuse.

Individuals who experience violent situations are among the most oppressed and disadvantaged in our society.  The Centre uses a flexible approach to respond to both the immediate and long-term needs of individuals by offering services by skilled counselling staff and trained volunteers.  Our services are provided for no charge and with no referral required.

Our services are available to women, men and youth who have experienced sexual assault, and any woman who has experienced or is currently experiencing:

• Childhood sexual abuse

24 Hour Sexual Assault Crisis Line

Our sexual assault line operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.  Staff and fully trained volunteers are ready and willing to provide support and/or information when you need it.
