We work to educate legislators, service providers, the media, and the public on the perspectives and experiences of sex workers. We advocate for repealing ineffective, punitive policies that harm people in the sex trade and push all stakeholders to focus on addressing the root causes of coercion in the sex trade. We strive to build a supportive community of people working in the sex trade and those who care about us.

Education

Our collective meets with stakeholders including public officials, social service providers, and journalists to provide an intersectional analysis of current sex trafficking and commercial sex criminalization policies in Wisconsin. Our goal is to help more people understand the impact of current policies and how they can be improved to be more effective and less harmful towards vulnerable communities, including those they are intended to help.

Legislative Advocacy

We support legislation in Wisconsin that centers the needs of marginalized communities, provides effective resources and support for survivors of violence, and respects the rights and agency of adults who engage in commercial sex work. You can read about our support for SB245 and AB185, proposed Safe Harbor legislation, here.
