On May 5, we recognize the National Day of Awareness for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls, and Two-Spirit People.

At PEERS, we know that systems of colonial violence and criminalization disproportionately impact Indigenous people, especially those who are s*x workers.

We hold grief, anger, and responsibility as we acknowledge the ongoing violence rooted in colonial systems—and we commit to listening and supporting Indigenous-led calls for justice.

We encourage our community to:

Learn the Calls for Justice from the National Inquiry
Support Indigenous-led organizations
Challenge systems that enable ongoing violence
