KSM would like to introduce ourselves! We are a team of volunteer street medics that provide preventive and emergency care and first aid for community-led events such as protests, marches or rallies. KSM works to support community members in their work towards collective liberation. We have NO affiliation or collaboration with city/province emergency response (including firefighters, paramedics, cops) or healthcare institutions. KSM is grounded in anti-colonial, leftist (anarchist and socialist), anti-racist, and anti-carceral organizing.

To contact KSM: Please reach out to co-facilitators, members and/or through our email: katarokwistreetmedics@proton.me

To request medics for an event: Please email katarokwistreetmedics@proton.me with the following information:
-event date, time, risk level, actions (is this a rally, a meeting, a march?)
-expected guest numbers
-estimated number of medic PAIRS (minimum is two medics).
