St. James Infirmary provides compassionate and non-judgmental healthcare and social services for all sex workers while preventing occupational illnesses and injuries through a comprehensive continuum of services.

Trainings & Support Groups for Sex Workers

We provide harm reduction training series nearly every Tuesday from 4-6pm. All genders are welcome. Come by and meet other workers in the sex industry. This includes people who have sex for money or trade, work in porn stores, work phone sex lines, do bodywork and massage, work at a sex club, work for porn companies on or off camera, and other creative means people have figured out. It will be a relaxed social atmosphere with no agenda except for folks to get a chance to talk, meet and listen to each other.

St. James Infirmary Peer Counselors coordinate weekly drop in trainings, workshops and groups for male, female, and transgender Sex Workers focusing on HIV prevention and. Trainings are grounded in principles of harm reduction, both methods and activities, and primarily concentrate on specific aspects of working conditions, as well as mental health, substance use and socially constructed issues influencing behavior that can put our community at risk for occupational illness and disease.
