PEERS Vancouver was founded by two former PEERS Victoria employees in October of 2001. Services became available in August of 2002 and since then we have served over 350 men, women and youth who have a history of sex work. PEERS Vancouver currently employs 11 staff members, offers three full time exiting programs and offers drop in services Monday thru Friday in our Employment Resource Centre.

PEERS Vancouver staff consists largely of former sex workers in an attempt to offer employment to those we serve and maintain grassroots.

As we are ever changing and growing we strongly encourage those we represent to offer feedback and suggestions. If you have any questions or comments please forward them to pr@peersvancouver.org
