We are sorry to inform the community that after three years, SWOP Brooklyn has decided to end our current programming and transition our resources to other community organizations. As of the release of this statement, SWOP Brooklyn is no longer providing any of the services we have come to be known for.

We have distributed hundreds of thousands of dollars of emergency aid to the community; done a weekly street outreach; hosted a Monkeypox vaccine clinic; acted as a resource hub for sex worker-friendly healthcare, mental health, and aid resources; and hosted numerous events, including community hangouts, fundraisers, and workshops/skill shares.

We loved organizing for these past few years, and we tried our best to keep it running, but it wasn’t feasible to keep it going any longer. We hope the community will be able to use the existing organizations and channel their money/time/energy towards those other community resources. Below, we have listed some organizations you can look to for support in the future.

We are a peer-led organization supporting & advocating for sex workers in New York

 
The precarious situations of sex workers in the time of COVID-19 underscore the failings of our systems and our government’s inability to care for its most marginalized citizens.
