COVID 19 INFO

Sex work has continued under COVID as, like everyone, sex workers must work to survive. SWAI operates from a harm reduction perspective so we created guidelines for working during the pandemic for workers and clients.

About

SWAI supports the self-determination of all sex workers to be given a voice and allowed to speak on their own behalf. We support a harm reduction policy in relation to sex work and that sex workers should be granted the same rights as all other workers.

Mission Statement: To promote the social inclusion, health, safety, civil rights and the right to self determination of female, male, cisgender and transgender sex workers.
