Elitist SWers are such a bad vibe. You are not better than the woman walking the street. I am not better than the woman walking the street. We were just given different life circumstances but we’re all trying to support ourselves. Can’t be high-end without insinuating someone else is low-end.

I don’t want to launch this with only a few profiles to avoid the women listed being targeted by bad actors; so if you’re interested please send your info along, I’ll be getting back to everyone that has submitted information this week.

Our invitational was a huge success! We had higher attendance than we could have anticipated, and local NDP and green representatives attended to help us bridge the gap between the under-served people in Ottawa, and politicians.

Lateral violence is by design. Systems that hoard power benefit when marginalized people are distracted fighting over scraps. It is so easy to look at your peers and think, I deserve more than you, & I can take this from you… than it is to confront the system hoarding it all.

At Take Back The Night 2026 in Ottawa; We were told we could not speak. Sex workers were not welcome. We spoke anyways. We were applauded. Next time, we will be welcomed.

Started a new project. Thought about how frustrating it was that so many workers are pressured frequently into data scraping esque scams, or sending face photos to malicious third parties under the guise of “making sure they’re real”, and came up with a creative solution.

CORAS is growing, and we’re again looking for a new Board Member! 💗 We’ve grown enormously over the past year, and we need another pair of hands- someone caring, excited, reliable, with lived experience in the industry (or as a survivor), who is comfortable taking initiative.

Community requires a little trust. Assume good faith in the people you’re working with. If you’re sea-lion-ing every single decision, or picking apart everything your community does, you’re going to burn through the people trying to build it, and end up isolated and alone.

We REALLY need people to march with us at Pride. 🌈 Allies, partners, friends, family- everyone is welcome. Ottawa’s sex workers’ rights movement needs a community behind it. If we want rights, we have to show up and fight for them. Come march with CORAS. ❤️

Housing is a human rights issue. When leaving violence means finding $2,500+ rent, perfect credit and more, housing keeps people trapped. Landlords don’t provide housing. They hoard access to it and profit from our need to survive. We need public housing and strong regulations against landlords.

CORAS ‘It Takes a Village’ program provides practical, in-home support to women in Ottawa, Ontario (or within a 20 minute drive of the city’s outskirts) who could use some help getting through all the small things that become enormous when you're doing everything yourself.

One of the biggest things this work has taught us is this: The people with the least will so often give you the most. A sex worker sleeping in her car will spend hours, days, helping someone else find housing. Someone struggling to make rent will give up what little food they have to share a meal.

CORAS @corasfoundation.bsky.social · 15/07/2026

Our art classes will run through until September. 💕 We also pay for childcare and travel costs as needed (and as funding allows) so that nobody has to feel left out of these opportunities to heal and find community. Please reach out if this interests you!

CORAS @corasfoundation.bsky.social · 13/07/2026

Art class tomorrow will be held outdoors again given the weather, please bring appropriate clothing and footwear! We will be by the river again and you may absolutely swim if you’d like. 💕 Our topics recently have been the practice of unburdening, and healing in nature. 🥰

As a SWer-led organization, visibility is one of our biggest challenges.* If you're unable to donate, simply sharing this fundraiser with your network makes a tremendous difference. THANK YOU for standing with CORAS. ❤️

Art healing is going amazing, this week we drew ourselves as the animal we most identify with, and then partner up, chat a little and draw our partner as an animal as well 🥰🙏 Then a little nature walk by the river to end the evening, since it was such a beautiful day! ☀️

Porn is not inherently evil. Exploiting vulnerable groups is evil. Wanna know how to fix porn, puritans? Pay/encourage people to pay adult creators as directly as you can/as they offer. Paying adult creators/feminist led companies for porn is ethical and reduces risk.

Mandatory HIV testing doesn’t protect people; it drives stigma, and pushes folks away from care. Trusted public health only needs access and to be safe, not coercion.
