About Us

At the Sendero Centre, we are committed to supporting individuals impacted by sexual violence, a mission that began over 30 years ago with the founding of the Central Alberta Sexual Assault Support Centre (CASASC).

 

Over the years, we have evolved to meet the changing needs of our community, offering services that range from crisis intervention and counseling to prevention education and police and court support. Throughout this journey, we’ve remained steadfast in our vision of creating a safer, more compassionate and respectful community here in central Alberta, where every voice is heard and every survivor is supported.

​

Our growth has led to the creation of the Sendero Centre, a space that symbolizes healing and resilience. "Sendero," meaning "path," reflects our continuous journey with the community—walking alongside those affected by trauma and advocating for a future free from sexual violence.

​

At the Sendero Centre, we focus on empowerment and safety, providing not just resources but a welcoming environment where healing can flourish. With this new chapter, we reaffirm our commitment to education, awareness, and direct support for anyone who needs it. As we continue to grow, we remain hopeful and inspired by the positive changes we see, and the strength of individuals and communities standing united against sexual violence.
