The Network In 1990, the province of Ontario Ministry of Community and Social Services provided a grant to the Family Service Centre to examine the Ottawa area community response to sexual assault. A survey was conducted in which a recurring theme was found to be the need for a network through which to coordinate services and support the work of individual agencies.
As a result, the Sexual Assault Network (SAN) was formed as one of the standing subcommittees of the Regional Coordinating Committee to End Violence Against Women. SAN continues to receive a yearly grant from the Ministry of Community and Social Services and under Ministry direction, has since become a program within the Anti-Violence Program at Family Services à la famille Ottawa (FSFO). The modest funding received by FSFO supports SAN's work and provides for a part-time staff position to coordinate its activities.
