DanceSafe, Good Night Out Vancouver, and Mimi Page have teamed up to produce Healing is Power, an 8-week campaign focused on building the knowledge and skills of fans, artists, management, venues, and event producers to prevent and address sexual violence and support healing.
Community members across all areas of the industry, including fans, artists, management, venues, and event producers, will be introduced to critical knowledge and skills to help dismantle rape culture and build a consent culture within music and nightlife communities.

Week by week, the campaign will cover:
In this collaboration, our organizations wish to recognize that we cannot participate in work focused on safety, anti-violence, and consent without also recognizing the role of historical and contemporary colonialism in creating violence in our communities today. Dismantling rape culture and building a consent culture also requires dismantling racism, sexism, and other colonial ideals, including how settler exploitation and white supremacy can (and do) show up in organizations and institutions doing non-profit work.
