SMC’s Village Environmental Club

Multiracial Students' Association (MSA)

SMC’s Village Environmental Club

In an era where sharing reels with friends and chatting with AI bots has become a method of socialization equal to face-to-face communication with humans, young people have become divided and isolated by their screens. St. Mike's Village aims to bring down this barrier created by our deeply individualistic and consumerist society.  Our goal is to create a safe space for students to have open, honest, and engaging conversations about the role in which technology plays within the conversation surrounding community and sustainability. Instead of rejecting the digital environment that divides us, we want to spark friendly debate and learn about how this invention impacts our environment. Just like the small villages that depend on each other to grow and to heal, St. Mike’s Village will be a place for coexistence, nurturing, and healing, on an individual, communal, and environmental level.

SAGA Pears

Multiracial Students' Association (MSA)

SMC’s Village Environmental Club

 SAGA (St. Michael's Students Against Gendered Assault) is a grassroots, trauma-informed coalition that provides support and resources to survivors of sexual violence at SMC and across the University of Toronto; it is founded and led by survivors through survivor-centred principles such as autonomy, consent, equity, mutual aid, support, and care. SAGA recognizes survivors as the leaders whose voices need to be heard to implement policy change. 


Past initiatives have included monthly resource fairs, where we provide free safer sex, menstrual and self care supplies to students. We have hosted multiple educational workshops, including our workshop on reclaiming joy as a survivor, Palestinian advocacy and our sexual health education seminar. Some other initiatives in past years have been collaborations with organizations like Black Cap TO where we raised funds for survivors living with HIV/AIDS. We have also had many events for SMC students like study nights, and craft events.
