Best
Practices Policy Project
The Best Practices Policy Project is an organization dedicated
to creating excellence amongst organizations and advocates
working with sex workers in the
United States
. We produce materials for policy environments, address research
and academic concerns and provide NGOs with technical
assistance. Everything that we do is guided by principles that
protect the rights of people who engage in commercial sex in all
its forms.

Prostitutes'
Education Network
The Prostitutes' Education Network is an information service
about legislative and cultural issues as they effect prostitutes
and other sex workers. The service is comprised of information
for sex workers and activists/educators who study issues of
decriminalization, human rights in the context of prostitution,
violence against prostitutes and women, sex workers and
pornography, as well as current trends in legislation and social
policy in the U.S. and internationally.
Research
for Sex Work
Research
for Sex Work is an annual journal dedicated to the topic of
research on sex work. It aims to provide a platform for the
exchange of ideas, experiences, observations and research
results with regards to sex work and HIV prevention in the
broader framework of health and human rights. Although the title
suggests otherwise, Research for Sex Work is not an academic
journal. Readers and authors are from sex workers (support)
organisations, HIV prevention projects, local and international
NGOs, universities, research institutes, etc.
