This is why the work of @HIPSDC and @DCAYA is important. But moreso, this is why working directly with youth with lived experience of homelessness and survival sex work to give them what they need matters most of all.
.@wamu885 Anyone surprised by the fact that youth who are hungry or homeless engage in sexual exchange to meet vital needs hasn’t been paying attention.
“When youth have breakdowns in support systems, that’s often when they turn to exchanging sex to survive."
A new report highlights the extent of this problem in the District. https://t.co/CbCshfuUjx
Youth engaging in sexual exchange to survive need resources. They don’t need rescue or saviors or criminalization. They need consistent, stable resources. They need their basic human rights upheld.
