CoSA Vancouver/Fraser Valley

CoSA (Circles of Support and Accountability) is a volunteer-driven, community-based program that enhances community safety by providing support and holding accountable sex offenders returning to his/her communities after incarceration. Recently, we have also integrated public education into our mandate. We believe that the first level of intervention in reducing sexual offences is educating on sexual abuse prevention through webinars and providing resources to the community.
Over the past 21 years, CoSA B.C. has worked with over 250 sex offenders as they completed his/her sentences and sought to return to the community in a safe and crime-free way. Our story is the story of reintegrating citizens and his/her volunteers. However, our story is also the story of “no more victims”.
