Sex Workers & Sexual Violence

Join our guests Sex Workers Outreach Project (SWOP) Behind Bars as we discuss the different experiences, barriers, methods of harm reduction, and more regarding sex workers who have experienced sexual violence.

What is SWOP?

SWOP Behind Bars (SBB) is a national grassroots social justice network dedicated to the fundamental human rights of sex workers, victims of trafficking, and their communities. We focus on those currently incarcerated or seeking re-entry. SWOP BB centers the voices of sex workers and trafficking victims as we work to end violence and stigma by providing direct services, resources, community-building projects, educational programs, and advocacy.
