SUMMARY:Sexualized Violence\, Transformative Justice & the Shift Away from Criminalization
DESCRIPTION:Sexualized Violence\, Transformative Justice & the Shift Away from Criminalization\nAn introduction to transformative justice as an alternative response to sexualized violence and intimate partner violence\n\nFriday\, January 29th\, 2021\n3:00-5:00pm\, online\nRegister for the event here\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout this Event\n\n\nIn this workshop\, participants will learn about the basics of transformative justice as a model for ending and responding to sexual violence\, intimate partner violence\, and other harms in society\, and understand why many activists believe it is an essential shift from the current approach of criminalization\, police and prisons. \nThis event is presented by the Simon Fraser Public Interest Research Group (SFPIRG) and the SFU Sexual Violence Support & Prevention Office (SVSPO) as part of SFU’s Sexual Assault Awareness Month. See the full calendar of events here. \nSFU and UBC students\, faculty\, and staff are invited to this event. \nASL interpretation is offered for this event. You will be asked to indicate if you require this service when you order your free ticket. If no requests for ASL interpretation are received by 12pm January 21\, this service will be cancelled. \nRegistrants will be emailed the Zoom link 24 hours before the start of the event.  \n\nClick here to register! \n\nFacilitator Bios: \nAmber Goulet (she/her/hers) is a queer Cree woman from Amiskwacîwâskahikan (Edmonton\, Alberta) in Treaty 6 territory and currently a fourth year UBC undergraduate completing her Bachelor of Arts\, double majoring in First Nations & Indigenous Studies and Gender\, Race\, Sexuality and Social Justice. As part of the First Nations & Indigenous Studies program in 2019/2020\, Amber partnered with WAVAW to engage and design a community research project\, examining the strengths and weaknesses of moving beyond state approaches to sexualized violence within Indigenous communities. Her interests include conversations about decolonizing feminism\, gender\, sexuality\, violence\, and curating alternative ways of unpacking intergenerational trauma. After Amber completes her degree at UBC\, she hopes to move onto a master’s degree program with a focus in art and community engagement. \nMeenakshi Mannoe\, PIVOT Legal\, Criminalization and Policing Campaigner\, Prison Justice Day Organizer: Meenakshi works alongside her interdisciplinary colleagues to envision intersectional approaches to policing and criminalization. Meenakshi is the child of first-generation immigrants from India and Suriname\, born on Anishinaabe & Haudenosaunee territory\, and today lives on unceded territory of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam)\, Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish)\, and səl̓ílwətaʔɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) peoples. She values Pivot’s uncompromising commitment to the expertise and vision of people with lived and living experience. Her work emphasizes the impact of policing on all aspects of Pivot’s work\, with particular attention to public legal education materials\, policy analysis and community engagement.. \nKalamity Hildebrandt\, SFPIRG Director of Research and Education \nKalamity has been working in the community on a range of social justice issues\, including anti-violence organizing\, since the early 90’s. They (Kalamity’s pronouns are they/them/their) have long been convinced that the colonial state and its police and prison systems\, cannot\, and were never intended to\, prevent violence – quite the opposite in fact – and that it is vital that we find ways to respond to harm in our communities that do not themselves cause further harm. Kalamity is socially and politically located somewhere in all of this: fat-queer-whitesettlerwithcitizenship-femme-genderqueer-disabled-hearing-psychiatrized-anti-carceral-abusesurvivor-poverty/workingclass-early50’s(!)-intersectional-anti-colonial-anti-capitalist-pro-healing/transformative-justice-anarchist.

Non-students can also become associate members of SFPIRG and get involved with us. \nWe realize that not everyone shares SFPIRG’s values\, so each semester we offer students the ability to revoke their membership. If you would like to opt-out\, please see the COVID-19 update below. Once you opt-out\, you are no longer a member of SFPIRG and will not be eligible to use the organization’s resources and services. \n*COVID-19 Update* Due to the COVID-19 pandemic\, fee refunds will be administered differently for the Spring 2021 semester only.

SUMMARY:Fee Refunds - Summer 2021 Semester
DESCRIPTION:SFPIRG is a student-funded non-profit organization\, autonomous from the University\, Simon Fraser Student Society\, and the Graduate Student Society. Each semester we receive $3.00 from full-time undergraduate students and $1.50 from part-time undergraduate students. Following a successful graduate student referendum in Spring 2020\, we receive $5.50 from full-time graduate students and $2.75 from part-time graduate students. After paying their student fees\, all students are members of SFPIRG and can use the resources available through our centre. Non-students can also become associate members of SFPIRG and get involved with us. \nWe realize that not everyone shares SFPIRG’s values\, so each semester we offer students the ability to revoke their membership. If you would like to opt-out\, please see the COVID-19 update below. Once you opt-out\, you are no longer a member of SFPIRG and will not be eligible to use the organization’s resources and services. \n*COVID-19 Update* Due to the COVID-19 pandemic\, fee refunds will be administered differently for the Summer 2021 semester only. To receive more information about opting out of your SFPIRG membership for the Summer 2021 semester\, please send an email to admin@sfpirg.ca between the dates and times listed below. \n\nOpt-Out start time: Wednesday\, May 26th – 10am\nOpt-Out end time: Wednesday\, June 2nd – 3pm

SUMMARY:Organizing for a Police-Free World
DESCRIPTION:Organizing for a Police-free World\nA part of SFPIRG’s Transformative Justice summer series \n \nFill out this form to register! \nIn this workshop\, we will hear from organizers working to defund the police and reduce the scope of policing\, and from those actively building alternatives through mutual aid\, transformative justice\, harm reduction\, and eviction defence. We will discuss the pitfalls of co-optation and state funding\, and reflect on the possibilities for grassroots organizing in our neighbourhoods and workplaces. \nAbout the event series\nThis workshop is part of an event series of 4 interactive workshops that will help folks develop their knowledge and skills around organizing for transformative justice\, mutual aid\, and defunding the police. Together we will explore models for responding to harm without further violence and without the re-entrenchment of state violence through prisons and police. We will learn about alternatives to police and prisons\, develop our skills to respond to crises without police\, and organize for transformative change. Each session will be a mixture of discussion\, brainstorming\, skill-sharing\, and panel or fishbowl discussions with those on the frontlines.  \nRegister for one or all sessions through this form! \nRegistration cut-off time for each session is 9:00 AM on the same day. e.g. you will be unable to register for “Organizing for a police-free world” after 9:00 AM on Saturday July 3. Any registrants after 9:00 AM may not receive the Zoom link in time to attend. \nThis event series is presented by the Simon Fraser Public Interest Research Group (SFPIRG)\, the AMS Sexual Assault Support Centre (SASC)\, SFU Students of Caribbean and African Ancestry (SOCA)\, SFU Disability and Neurodiversity Alliance (SFU DNA)\, the Simon Fraser Student Society (SFSS)\, the UBC Sexual Violence Prevention and Response Office (SVPRO)\, and the UBC Social Justice Centre (UBC SJC)\, made possible with generous support from Pivot Legal Society and PeerNetBC.  \nEach session will be online from 10-5pm\, with a 1-hour lunch break. Full list of sessions: \n\nSaturday July 3: Organizing for a police-free world \nSaturday July 10: No Cops on Campus: imagining police-free universities & colleges\nSaturday July 17: No More “Wellness Checks”: building grassroots mental health first aid skills\nSaturday July 24: What’s My Place? Reflections & next steps in movement-building\n\nAccessibility\nASL interpretation is confirmed for this event. You will be asked to indicate if you require this service when you register for free through this form.  \nA Zoom link will be emailed to participants ahead of time. \nLand Acknowledgement\nWe acknowledge that SFPIRG occupies unceded Indigenous land of Coast Salish peoples. Based on our current knowledge\, this includes the territories of the Musqueam\, Skwxwú7mesh\, Tsleil-Waututh\, Kwikwetlem\, Kwantlen\, Katzie\, Qayqayt\, Semiahmoo\, and Tsawwassen nations. Unceded means this land was never surrendered\, relinquished or handed over in any way. In this work around transformative justice\, we recognize policing and carceral systems as part of the violence of settler colonialism\, and thus we strive to bring forward anti-colonial analyses and to echo the demands of Indigenous folks for decolonization and land back.

SUMMARY:No Cops On Campus: Imagining Police-free Universities & Colleges
DESCRIPTION:No Cops On Campus: Imagining police-free universities & colleges\nA part of SFPIRG’s Transformative Justice summer series \n \nFill out this form to register! \nThis workshop will focus on the issue of police abolition in a university or college context. Student and staff organizers will discuss recent instances of police violence at SFU and UBC\, and participants will explore what it might look like for a university to partly or entirely divest from the police. As well – in the knowledge that institutions tend to resist change – participants will explore the possibilities for building community-led alternatives for responding to problems on campus. \nAbout the event series\nThis workshop is part of an event series of 4 interactive workshops that will help folks develop their knowledge and skills around organizing for transformative justice\, mutual aid\, and defunding the police. Together we will explore models for responding to harm without further violence and without the re-entrenchment of state violence through prisons and police.
