Description:
This 36-month project aims to deploy the Foundation de l’ASEQ’s “Order an Angelo” accreditation protocol throughout the country in cities and main official language minority communities. The protocol will be implemented in bars and public spaces where alcohol is consumed. Places where there is a worrying prevalence of sexual violence, following the lifting of health restrictions related to the pandemic, will be particularly targeted. The protocol provides that a person fearing for their safety can order an Angelo from the establishment’s staff to call for help. Staff will be trained and equipped to be active witnesses who can intervene appropriately to prevent and respond to sexual violence. The project thus directly addresses the systemic barriers – such as myths, norms and attitudes surrounding sexual violence, consent, and alcohol and/or drug use – that facilitate the perpetration of sexual violence. By the end of the project, a vast network of safe bars committed to fighting sexual violence will be created across Canada.
The supplement funding of $175,000 will be used to expand and support the implementation of the protocol in the North.

Program Purpose:
The purpose of the GBV Program is to strengthen the GBV sector to address gaps in supports for two groups of survivors: 1) Indigenous women and their communities, and 2) underserved populations (including women living with a disability, non-status/refugee /immigrant women, LGBTQ2S, gender non-conforming people and ethno-cultural women) in Canada. The Program provides grant and contribution funding to Canadian organizations to improve supports to help create long-term, comprehensive solutions at the national, regional, and local levels.
