Sexual violence among queer folks is often a reality that is made invisible in conversations both within and outside our communities.
Join us for a facilitated conversation on the myths, realities, unique challenges and strategies for shifting the conversation around sexual violence in the queer community.
Dinner will be provided : )

Mpowerment is a trans-inclusive and gender-affirming program by and for young men and gender diverse folks who are gay, bi, Two-Spirit, or queer. To us, this includes masc of centre folks and guys who are trans, intersex, Two-Spirit, non-binary, and cis, and gender diverse people. As an organization that strives to be anti-oppressive and inclusive, we work towards creating safer spaces for all young people in our communities, including those of us who are living with HIV and/or Hep C!
This event will be taking place on the unceded and occupied territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm, Sḵwx̱wú7mesh and Tsleil-Waututh nations.
Mpowerment events are for youth ages 16 - 29 years old to connect and hang out with each other. We ask that if you're outside of this age range that you message us ahead of time to chat more about what being involved can look like.
