Decriminalize Sex Work

DSW produced these meticulously researched briefing papers with accompanying short videos to efficiently explain the most salient reasons to decriminalize consensual adult prostitution and to improve policies related to all forms of sex work. These briefing papers cover specific topics including Why Decriminalizing Sex Work Is Good Criminal Justice Policy, Human Trafficking and Sex Work, and Debunking the Entrapment/Equality Model amongst others.

Unequivocal and ample evidence from around the world shows that decriminalizing sex work will help end human trafficking, improve public health, promote community safety, and protect civil liberties. We hope you will use these papers and short videos as resources to help legislators and the general public understand the urgent and critical need to decriminalize consensual adult sex work.
