Sex Work Support, Mutual Aid, and merch design
Ali is a member of Intimate Access - a mutual aid network for and by sex workers on "Vancouver Island" doing peer-led advocacy, education & mutual aid. The collective distributes micro-grants to island-based sex workers quarterly based on need & social marginalization, for as long as funds exist. Ali contributes by donating proceeds from her comic sales, tabling at events, securing grant funding, and organizing fundraisers.
Ali is a former board member of PACE Society and was a part of their Leadership Support and Oversight Committee. She also planned a fundraiser and raffle to raise money for the temporary closing feast. She also created and screen printed the design pictured above.
Ali has worked in multiple roles at Peers over the last 5 years including: Drop-In and Night Outreach Coordinator, Media/Education/Advocacy, and Arts-based workshop facilitator. She also designed the merch pictured above.
