WISH’s Drop-In Program is temporarily closed.

WISH Drop-In Centre is a safe, welcoming, and non-judgmental space for cis and trans women, Two-Spirit, Non-Binary, and gender diverse sex workers. To prioritize the privacy and security of participants, the Drop-In is only open to participants, staff, and invited guests.

A temporary closure of the Drop-In program has been put in place to address a funding shortfall. Negotiations are underway to ensure sustainable funding for this critical resource that has been supporting sex workers since 1984.

“Call it home, call it family, call it whatever you want, but we all come here to take care of ourselves.”

– WISH participant

When the Drop-In reopens, it will offer services, programming and a community space for active sex workers. This is part of our commitment to recentring women and gender diverse street-based sex workers in the DTES.

WISH Drop-In is a space that is:

  • Open to all cis and trans women, Two-Spirit, Non-Binary, and gender diverse sex workers.
  • Welcoming to trans women
  • Safe for all religions, races, ethnicities, and sexualities
  • Non-judgmental, accepting, and supportive
  • Shared by all participants equally
  • Free of violence, racism, transphobia, bullying, and harassment
