There is no cost to participate in this event, but participants must register in advance.
Location: Sessions are taking place on the ground floor of the Ellis Building at 1024 Main Street, in Vancouver. This area of the building and the non-gendered washroom are wheelchair accessible.
Details: Each session will consist of a panel discussion, Q&A, performance, and social mingler. Attendees will leave this session with an increased awareness of the microaggressions and violence that marginalized people can often face on a daily basis, as well as tools to safely intervene in conflict, support victims, and foster meaningful community connections.

Note: Due to capacity constraints, a maximum of three representatives can be accepted from any one organization.
