ASWOP will be sorting out the details of their Dec 17th event to mark the International Day to End Violence Against Sex Workers -- going over tasks, reviewing a presentation to address stigma among the general population.

The Asheville Sex Worker Outreach Project (ASWOP) is a community coalition that stands for the rights and health of sex workers by facilitating the needs of this population through connecting them to services and support. This coalition includes active or former sex workers, community members, and a variety of community partners.

ASWOP follows a harm reduction model, and believes that all individuals deserve to be safe. In that vein, we seek to work with individuals at a high risk for sexual violence, who are also a part of a stigmatized group in society."
