We acknowledge that the work of PACE Society takes place on the stolen lands of the Coast Salish Peoples, specifically the shared territories of the Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), Səl̓ílwətaʔ (Tsleil-Wau-tuth), and xwməθkwəy̓ əm (Musqueam) First Nations.
We acknowledge our responsibility to work in solidarity with Indigenous Peoples and Nations who have lived on and protected these lands long before colonization.
Due to colonial violence, we understand that Indigenous sex workers are disproportionately affected by the violence, harms, and isolation that stems from the stigmatization and criminalization of sex work.
As an essential part of our work, we commit to centering Indigenous perspectives, and actively working towards decolonization and Indigenous sovereignty.
