In 1987, an Emergency Health Care Needs study found a greater need for sexual assault services in Hastings & Prince Edward County. In 1990 a group of local women, formed a committee to raise the funds for sexual assault services. Then in June 1991, The Sexual Assault Centre for Quinte and District officially began operation, providing sexual assault services and supports.
Babes of Quinte please welcome Amy Dufresne the Public Educator at the Sexual Assault Centre for Quinte and District.
