Where does Your Organization Stand on Sex Workers Rights?

Sex worker rights advocates and members of the Sex Work Donor Collaborative presenting on the release of the “From Do-No-Harm to Inclusion” funder toolkit.

Funders, let’s talk about sex work, sex trafficking, and your funding portfolio.

Where do you—and your organization—really stand when it comes to sex work? Maybe you’re already proudly backing sex worker-led initiatives, and consider yourself to be a champion ally. Or maybe the term “sex work” gives you pause, and your focus has been on preventing exploitation and trafficking. Either way, one thing’s for sure: your dollars have impact, and it’s worth making sure they’re not unintentionally doing harm.

That’s where New Moon, in collaboration with the Sex Work Donor Collaborative, comes in. We’ve created a new resource just for you: “From Do-No-Harm to Inclusion: A Toolkit for Funders on the Issue of Sex Work.” Think of it as your funding compass—helping you explore your position on sex trade issues, take a closer look at your giving practices, and ensure your support uplifts rather than undermines.

Curious? Concerned? Completely confused? Perfect. This toolkit was made with you in mind.

In collaboration with the SWDC, New Moon is available to offer free trainings on this toolkit for your staff or organization.

We’re excited to work with funders who are committed to doing no harm, regardless of your stance on the issue of sex workers rights.
