BY, WITH & FOR SEX WORKERS

WHAT WE DO

We provide confidential, non-judgmental services for sex workers, including occupational health and safety education, support, advocacy, outreach, and drop-in services from a harm reduction and rights-based model.

EVENTS

We host a number of weekly groups and events to provide a strong community of support for sex workers.

GET INVOLVED

Our organization benefits from the generous support of our funders, donors, and volunteers.

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.

TESTIMONIALS

Words can not express my gratitude for PACE. As an organization, how the staff advocates for their clients. And all the programs, classes, seminars, meetings etc. that PACE provides. PACE is truly one of its kind! An organization ahead of its time when it comes to supporting sex workers in today’s society. PACE is everything sex workers today want and need. I am ever so grateful. PACE has a special place in my heart and always will. Thank you!

It’s becoming one of my lifetime’s greatest honours being a part of the beautiful community at PACE. Scared and alone, I made my first call to PACE. I received immediate help. The emotional support and resources have lifted me from a dark place. I continue to be astounded by the genuine caring and response time by staff and volunteers. My gratitude has lit my path to give back and help others, thank you PACE.

PACE Society is somewhere I am respected, somewhere my body gets to rest. Anywhere else, I am told to move along.

The staff should be commended for the love and support they put into food prep. They also give us an understanding ear and shoulder when we need someone to talk to. They run a program that is non-judgmental and inclusive, which is rare nowadays. 3 thumbs up!
