OUTREACH & ADVOCACY DURING THE PANDEMIC

Since March, SWAN's Outreach team has been busy with no-contact supply deliveries to indoor workers across the Lower Mainland. As well, over March and April, 55 im/migrant women accessed & received financial assistance in the first cycle of SWAN's COVID Relief Fund. (Contributions to this fund are gratefully accepted through CanadaHelps or by e-transfer.)

​

SWAN continues advocating directly with various federal MPs to ensure that sex workers'are included in all government Covid-19 responses, and are provided equitable access to government financial assistance.

​

As businesses are beginning to re-open within Phase One of BC's Restart Plan, SWAN continues to provide direct supports & advocacy to the im/migrant women we serve, as well as municipal & provincial policymakers.
