List of sex worker organizations

This is a list of sex worker organizations which advocate for sex workers' rights. Almost all sex worker organizations around the world favour the decriminalization of sex work, and have that goal as a primary objective. In locations where sex work is not criminalized, sex worker movements advocate for access to other kinds of rights such as unemployment, changes in zoning, and working to eliminate the social stigma attached to sexual labor.[1][2][3][4][5]

Literature describes such supportive organizations as "allies".[3][5]

A human rights based approach also means that consensual sexual relations between adults for remuneration should not be criminalised. (...) Consensual adult sex work should not be conflated with violence against women or trafficking in human beings; (...) the decriminalisation of sex work does not mean the removal of laws that criminalise exploitation, human trafficking or violence against sex workers. On the contrary, these laws must remain, and should be strengthened.
