If you or a loved one has been physically or emotionally impacted by a violent crime or traumatic event in British Columbia, financial barriers shouldn't stand in the way of your recovery. BC's Crime Victim Assistance Program (CVAP) is designed to support anyone impacted by a violent crime that occurred within British Columbia. This includes direct victims, immediate family of victims, and witnesses of a crime.
Quiet Coast Counselling is a recognized provider for CVAP. This program provides provincial funding for professional clinical counselling to help individuals navigate trauma, anxiety, PTSD, and grief.
Note: You do NOT need a police report or an active criminal charge to apply for or receive CVAP funding. Your safety and emotional recovery are the sole priorities.

Quiet Coast Counselling is a member of the ICBC Recovery Network. The ICBC Recovery Network provides support, within the first 12 weeks of recovery, to those involved in motor vehicle collisions.
This network provides access to treatments to help you recover, such as, counselling, registered massage therapy, acupuncture, and physiotherapy, and allows these services to be directly billed to ICBC. This helps avoid out-of-pocket costs at your expense, allowing you to focus on your recovery following an incident.
