Tanisha will present a talk on her work at the Iskweu Project, a Montreal-based initiative out of the Native Women鈥檚 Shelter of Montreal addressing the MMIWG2ST+ crisis. More on Iskweu:

鈥淭he Project wishes to respond to an immediate need for assistance expressed by families and loved ones in the case of an Indigenous woman or girl (trans, two -spirit) goes missing. Its aim is reducing and ultimately eradicating the number of missing and murdered Indigenous women and girls (trans, two-spirit) of Quebec; to offer support and ensure adequate response from institutions when someone goes missing. It seeks to reduce barriers in accessing support and receiving an adequate response from institutions that have historically discriminated against Indigenous peoples.鈥澛燫ead more聽.
