the resource project

Welcome to The Resource Project

We're glad you are here.

You’re getting an early look at The Resource Project while we complete the final stages of development.

The Resource Project was created for parents and caregivers navigating childhood sexual abuse — particularly those first overwhelming hours, days and months when it can be difficult to know what to do, what to say, or where to turn.

Please have a look around.

Most of the resource is already here, but we’re still reviewing content, developing graphics, building tools and adding resources. You may notice things change from one visit to the next.

What We're Working On

Before the full launch, we are continuing to:

  • Review and refine the content with parents, survivors, professionals and community advisors.

  • Strengthen cultural inclusion, working with Indigenous and other community advisors to identify assumptions, gaps and perspectives we may otherwise miss.

  • Translate The Resource Project into French, Punjabi, Mandarin Chinese, Arabic, Spanish, Urdu, Anishinaabemowin (Ojibwe) and Cree.

  • Build a Practical Toolbox with simple, usable tools for difficult conversations, big emotions and challenging moments.

  • Develop and refine graphics to make difficult information easier to understand and navigate.

  • Improve accessibility and consider the different ways children, teens and adults communicate and process information.

  • Expand our Support Directory to connect families with trusted services and resources in communities across Ontario.

  • Add printable resources that families can use at home or bring with them when meeting with professionals.

Help Us Make It Better

The Resource Project has been shaped by people who have walked this path.

As you explore, we welcome your feedback.

If something is difficult to understand, hard to find, missing, particularly helpful - or simply doesn't feel right - please tell us.

There are things we will see because of our experience.

And there will be things we can only see because you shared yours.
