We have a project here called STORM, to assist sex trade workers. Basically we accept them wherever they are in their journey. It's non-judgmental, so we provide some basic programming and a place to come for coffee. We've partnered with Centre espoir Sophie here in Ottawa. We give them some healthy safe sex information and then kind of slip in that there's culture programming over here at Minwaashin Lodge. That's how we do it.
We go right to where it's happening and offer help. Eventually women start taking an interest and asking questions. Then we escort them over to Minwaashin Lodge and get them involved. Basically, that's our approach to assisting sex trade workers.
