Ahh – the days when you thought SW would be “hot outfits and cute regulars” and not “late-night spam numbers, time wasters, weird vibes, and dudes who ‘forgot’ their screening info”? YUH. If you’re new to the hustle or just tired of winging it and want to reduce your headaches, Studioresolve’s Safety & Screening Toolkit for Independent Service Providers helps you clock the red flags before they even hit send. The harm reduction buddy you wished you always had.

Created by SWs for SWers, this printable harm-reduction toolkit gives you screening frameworks, red flag checklists, and trip-texting templates. It also covers digital privacy tips and a post-session debrief to build your own safety record over time. Think of it as that experienced friend who’s seen it all, but in PDF form. Fully on your side when “same-day, no details, babe I’ll pay extra” energy slides into your DMs.

And, while you’re at it, show up this weekend: The SW Autonomous Committee (SWAC) is striking Saturday, May 23rd during F1 weekend in Montreal. The day kicks off at Place de la Paix, and around 5:30 p.m. participants split up to distribute flyers outside strip clubs across the city, demanding better working conditions, an end to exploitative bar fees, and pushing toward decriminalization. Labour rights are SW rights. Pull up if you can!
