The corner of Seymour and Helmcken is at the centre of one Vancouver “stroll” where sex workers have worked since the mid 1980’s. It is the location where Elaine Allenbach went missing in 1986. Who is Elaine Allenbach? Who was Helmcken? What is Seymour? On Sunday August 10th Angela Marie MacDougall from Battered Women’s Support Services will tell the story of an intersection in Vancouver, talk about the disappearance of Elaine Allenbach and why Battered Women’s Support Services has a presence on that corner today. Hear the story on Coop Radio Sunday, August 10th at 9 pm. Co-op Radio 102.7 FM or streaming at www.coopradio.org. For more information see http://www.thestorytellingshow.com/shows.htm
