List of sex worker organizations

This is a list of sex worker organizations which advocate for sex workers' rights. Almost all sex worker organizations around the world favour the decriminalization of sex work, and have that goal as a primary objective. These organizations also encourage active involvement from sex workers to support advocacy, fundraising, and public education efforts.[1] In locations where sex work is not criminalized, sex worker movements advocate for access to other kinds of rights such as unemployment, changes in zoning, and working to eliminate the social stigma attached to sexual labor.[2][3][4][5][6]

### Supportive

Literature describes such supportive organizations as "allies".[4][6]
