Episode 3 - Sexual Violence and the Law
The Harmony Project brings together local service providers working towards ending sexual violence in our community. In our fourth season of Let the Truth Talk, we focus on how sexual violence has been presented in the news. In this episode we talk with Lisa Bell from the Calgary Sexual Assault Response Team. Our conversation is focused on how certain laws have changed in Canada and how they have been presented in the news. We hope this episode is informative for all our listeners.
