Support for Sexual Misconduct
Please note: The 98% is not a crisis support centre or an official emergency service. Please refer to the links listed here. If you are seeking support understanding your options, please get in touch.
If you have experienced sexual misconduct, harassment, or abuse, please know that none of this is your fault. You are not to blame, so please try and release any feelings of shame or guilt. Advocating for yourself and seeking support is an act of strength. You are not alone, and there are people and services ready to listen, guide, and help you take any next steps you feel comfortable with. Your experience matters, your voice matters, and by reaching out, you are taking control of your journey toward safety and healing.
