About this organization
To speak to a detective from the Sex Crimes Unit in confidence, call 204-986-6245.
Victims of sexual assault are encouraged to attend the Health Sciences Centre where a formal Sexual Assault Protocol Exam is in place. You can, however, attend any hospital emergency room for assistance if it's a medical emergency.
To help police gather evidence, do not:
- shower/bathe
- change or throw away your clothes
- wash your hands or comb your hair
- brush your teeth
- smoke
- chew gum
- take any drugs or alcohol
- disturb the area of the occurrence
Tell the police or hospital staff immediately if you think you may have been drugged by a date-rape or other intoxicating substances. Testing for drugs requires a urine sample within approximately 12 hours after the drugs were taken, or the toxins are naturally flushed from your system.
There is no time limit for reporting and laying charges for a sexual assault. But, the sooner you call the police, the easier it is for them to collect the evidence needed to prove the charge.
Who can use it?
Victims of sexual assault.
