 Helping The Gatehouse help kids

A Toronto support centre that provides a safe and comfortable setting for criminal investigations of child abuse is the beneficiary of this year’s Professional Standards Unit golf tournament auction.

Det/Sgts. Ellery Butula and Kim O’Toole presented a cheque to The Gatehouse®, at a simple ceremony at the unit’s office.

“I have used The Gatehouse® as an investigator in the field, I am a great supporter of the organization and I volunteer my time there,” said O’Toole.

“They do great work and I am happy that this small contribution from our golf tournament can go to them. Hopefully, this is something we can continue to do in the future.”

With the strength and outstanding support of our community, The Gatehouse® provides a comfortable, non-threatening environment to help survivors of child abuse find their voice during the investigation process.

These programs help facilitate a child's disclosure of abuse in a way that will be less traumatic by focusing on the needs of the victim and non-perpetrating family members.

The Gatehouse® also offers a variety of programs including The Gatehouse Adult Support Network for adults who have experienced child abuse.
