Dance/NYC has identified a list of sexual harassment resources and service providers for NYC-based dance workers below. This list is not comprehensive, and Dance/NYC welcomes information about additional resources. Please email programsassistant@dance.nyc with suggestions.
You can find additional resources around sexual and gender-based violence in our DWR Resource Library.
