Le Shaw, the International Sexual Health and Wellness Research Institute, proudly announces its partnership with SWOP Behind Bars, a national social justice network dedicated to advocating for the fundamental human rights of sex workers, victims of trafficking, and their communities, with a particular focus on those currently incarcerated.

Le Shaw will enhance SWOP Behind Bars’ efforts to promote human rights and reduce stigma by contributing with its research expertise and industry knowledge. 

When asked about the partnership, Bobbi Bidochka, Director of le Shaw, expressed her enthusiasm: “SWOP Behind Bars’ activities are crucial in supporting some of the most marginalized members of the sex work community. By joining forces, we can amplify our impact and promote justice and well-being for incarcerated sex workers to advocate for systemic change.”
