Our Services
PACE's programming continues to evolve and include new and innovative
ideas that sex workers develop.
Although many of the programs and services initiated by PACE
Society span across the spectrum between health, education, and
support – we’ve attempted to assign each project under
the section heading it most applies to.
So although the Hepatitis C cookbook and brochures are under
the health section, they are great educational tools, and the group
setting involved in the implementation of this project provided
much support to participants.
Please keep this in mind as you browse through our services.
Support
At PACE Society, support is one of the most important services
we provide to men, women, and transgendered sex workers. Click

Violence Prevention
The Violence Prevention program at PACE combines on-the-spot
emergency support for issues around violence and a broader, prevention-based
initiative which involves group workshops around relevant, contextual
safety issues in the lives of survival sex workers.

Outreach
Mobile Access Project (MAP)
In partnership with WISH Drop-In Centre, we visit
known and emerging strolls in a van to provide support, supplies
and information to active sex workers from 10:30pm to 5:30am every
night in Vancouver.
Education
Clearing the Path
Clearing the Path encompasses a series of past and current projects
that address class advocacy, policy development and structural
change.
Sex workers were trained in organizational structure,
policy review and development. This group became PACE
Society's Policy Development Team who spent all
of 2005 conducting a content analysis of the policy manuals of
women's organizations throughout Canada to develop internal policies
for PACE Society.
