TALK series: Sex Work 101

May 22 @ 1:30 pm - 3:00 pm

May 22nd from 1:30 to 3 PM at Trellis HIV and Community Care. Talk Series Sex Work 101

In this talk, Christina Lea Gilchrist and Joni-Lee Aikens will discuss how Canadian law puts sex workers at risk and how it increases the negative stigma we face. We will also be covering harm reduction practices specific to the sex work industry that we would like to see implemented in the KFL&A region. Come learn from sex workers with lived experience on how to be a good ally.

Heathcare workers interested in harm reduction are excitedly encouraged to attend!

By contrast, if you are planning to attend as any kind of peace officer, we respectfully ask you to e-mail Trellis to request this specific topic at your organization’s location — so we can better address the needs of your staff — and in the interest of prioritizing the comfort of any sex workers in the audience. Thank you for understanding.
