Maggie’s Toronto - Interligne

Back to the list

Maggie's was founded in 1986 following decades of sex worker activism in Toronto. Peggy Miller and Danny Cockerline worked to build an organization that provided room for Sex Work advocacy while creating space for community support, outreach and education by and for local sex workers.Our guiding principles steer the growth and development of all programming, services, education and outreach at Maggie's. We are not an exit organization. We are founded on the belief that to improve our lives, sex workers must take back the power to control our own destinies. That is why Maggie’s exists first and foremost as an organization for sex workers, that is controlled by sex workers because we know that nothing about us, without us, is for us.
