Episode 1 - Sexual Violence in the News in the Bow Valley
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 Staff Sargent Mike Buxton Carr from the RCMP Banff Detachment.
He shares some local stats, concerns felt by many community members and how the RCMP handle sexual violence cases.
