About this service
Indigenous women are over-represented in street-based sex work in Vancouvers Downtown Eastside: more than 50 percent of WISH participants are Indigenous, and many have experienced severe trauma related to colonization, residential schools, and ongoing racism and discrimination.
The Aboriginal Health & Safety Project (AHSP) is a culturally-relevant response to this, helping Indigenous women involved in the sex trade reclaim their culture. They do this by connecting to each other, participating in cultural crafts and activities, learning new skills related to Indigenous traditions and experiencing sisterhood with each other.
