Our Services
Outreach/Case Management: Our Community Outreach Worker can support you in connecting with needed resources and referrals and in accomplishing your goals. We can help support clients in accessing employment and educational programs, housing resources, medical and legal supports and financial assistance, among others.
Counselling: We offer trauma-informed counselling focused on the hopes and goals identified by clients. Our therapists take a harm reduction and sex-positive approach and use a variety of therapeutic modalities.
Peer Support: The peer support workers use their lens of lived experience to support participants and encourage recovery, hope and resiliency. They may offer individual and group support, as well as accompaniment and advocacy in the community.
Education: The CREST Team offers workshops to the community on human trafficking awareness, prevention and response to youth, families, schools and service providers. If you would like to request a workshop for your group, school or workplace, please reach out to us by email.
