Hi there!
My name is Madison and I’m a student placement with the Women’s Support Network of York Region (WSN). WSN is York Region’s feminist, non-profit rape crisis and sexual violence centres. We provide free, non-judgmental, confidential services for survivors of
human trafficking or sexual violence who identify as women, femme, 2Spirit, or gender non-conforming within York Region.
The Women's Support Network is excited to share
two Anti-Human Trafficking events that we will be hosting at the end of this month!
Survivor's Speak
This will be a beautiful space for survivors of HT to come together and re-center Her-Stories by sharing poems, music, visual art, and any other forms of art expression. WSN is also happy to be offering an honorarium for art submissions, that will be used
to guide conversation and share stories for empowerment, healing, and spiritual growth!
Survivors speak will be held via
Zoom on Wednesday March 30th from 7-8pm.

A Candid Conversation: Human Trafficking for Commercial Sexual Exploitation as a Form of Colonial Violence
This space will be dedicated to having a critical conversation about how HT, specifically for the purposes of sexual exploitation, is an active and ongoing form of colonial violence. Focus will also be given to how we can transform our impact through community
care and support.
A Candid Conversation will be held
via Zoom on Thursday March 31st from 7- 8pm.
To register please visit:

Attached below you will also find informational flyers for both events.
To inquire about support for accommodations or more information please contact Loren by email at

We encourage and appreciate you sharing these opportunities with your networks and clients!
We look forward to seeing you all there!
Warm Regards,
