Hey, I’m Sophie Foster, and welcome to our podcast! Each week, I sit down with local experts to ask the questions we're all wondering about gender-based violence - what abuse really is, when to reach out, and how we can help prevent it—right here in Oxford County. This podcast is brought to you by the women's shelters in Oxford County - Domestic Abuse Services Oxford (DASO) and Ingamo Homes - and funded by the Ontario Trillium Foundation Seed Grant. New episodes are released every Wednesday!

Episode 8 - When Home Isn’t Safe: GBV, Kids, and CAS

In this episode, I sit down with Stephanie Butt and Jacqueline McGann, Service Managers from the Children's Aid Society Oxford, to talk openly about what CAS really does—and what it doesn’t.⁠We unpack some of the biggest misconceptions about working with CAS, what happens when a concern is reported, and how their work supports families, not just investigates them.⁠If you’ve ever felt unsure or uneasy about calling CAS—or just want to better understand their role—this one’s for you.Links from our conversation: Adverse Childhood Experience Questionnaire: https://www.acesaware.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/ACE-Questionnaire-for-Adults-Identified-English-rev.7.26.22.pdfResources + Support: Domestic Abuse Services Oxford (Emergency shelter & 24/7 crisis line)Website: www.daso.caCrisis Line Toll-Free Number: 1-800-265-1938Ingamo Homes (Second stage housing & support)Website: www.ingamohomes.comChildren's Aid Society OxfordWebsite: https://www.casoxford.on.ca/Follow us on Instagram: @canwetalkaboutthat
