About this service
The majority of women who access support at WISH rely on street-based sex work as their sole source of income, leaving them more vulnerable to physical and sexual violence. Without alternative sources of financial support, sex-working women are often forced to take dangerous dates that they might otherwise avoid. For women who wish to seek mainstream employment, opportunities are limited and barriers are high, ranging from having not held a mainstream job for years, to criminal records, to homelessness, to loss of confidence and continuously confronting stigma.
