PearlSpace Advocacy
PearlSpace is an organization that cultivates hope from an intersectional feminist framework, which means our inclusive services embody the values of Feminism, Empowerment, Safety, Resiliency, Transparency, and Belonging.
With this in mind, we collectively advocate for important days/weeks/months of remembrance, significance, and awareness or when current events shed light or attention on issues that intersect with our work.
We honour dates that acknowledge prevention of violence, women’s rights, Indigenous rights, mental health awareness, 2SLGBTQ+ rights, and other dates that recognize and commemorate marginalized groups.
Some of the dates we advocate for each year:
- International Women’s Day
- International Transgender Day of Visibility
- Sexual Assault Awareness Month
- Prevention of Violence Against Women Week
- Red Dress Day
- International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia & Biphobia
- National Indigenous History Month & Pride Month
- Canadian Multiculturalism Day
- National Day of Truth & Reconciliation
- International Pronouns Day
- Transgender Awareness Week & Transgender Day of Remembrance
- National Day of Remembrance & Action on Violence Against Women
