Our Womxn Donation Drive will benefit our relatives who are being served by Street Safe New Mexico. Most of these relatives are survivors of trafficking and/or are living in unsafe situations. Street Safe New Mexico is an all-volunteer 501(c)3 nonprofit that follows a harm-reduction philosophy by striving to reduce the harmful consequences associated with life on the street. Most of the women they serve have been Native victims of human sex-trafficking, while others have struggled with homelessness. Their goal is to protect the physical, medical and emotional health of all marginalized women. Street Safe does this by conducting street outreach several times a week, where they provide snacks, feminine hygiene products, pepper spray and personal sanitizing items.
This winter season, NM Tribal Trafficking Taskforce plans to contribute all items gathered through the Womxn Donation drive to NM Street Safe to continue to help our womxn relatives on the streets with jackets, shoes, condoms, personal hygiene, scarves, gloves, beanies, blankets, sleeping bags, and chocolates. It’s important to know that in doing street outreach, our Native sisters are often times surprised to see another Native womxn helping Street Safe.
