dropIn

A service for sexworkers

dropIn is a place for sexworkersoffering medical, social, psychological and materialsupportand follow-up. Opened in 1998, thissafe, neutral and anonymous space follows a non-directive approach, i.e. it respects people’s life choices without judgement. Today, more and more sexworkers benefit from its social and medical services as well as from the emotional support provided by the team.

A combination of multiple problems

The service isopen to all persons engaging in prostitution, whether professionally or occasionally, as well as cross-dressing or transgender people, regardless of nationality, status (legal or illegal) or age.

Sexworkers often suffer, in combination, from:

  • Administrativeproblems (no address, health insurance or papers, etc.)
  • Housingproblems (looking for a home, a room, etc.)
  • Understandingproblems (need for explanations of legislation and legal advice)
  • Physical and mental healthproblems (addiction problems, infections)
  • Financial problems.

Against social exclusion and for the prevention

dropIn is committed tofighting the social exclusion of sexworkers and organises health prevention and vaccination campaigns. Listening to the beneficiaries is at the heart of the team’s work: it is the base of the personalised care then received by the beneficiaries. The services offered as well as the prevention materials distributed at the dropIn are free of charge.

The service has the necessary equipment allowing sexworkers to communicate, rest, eat, wash or change their clothes. They can receive dailyprevention materials and wipes on a weekly basis. The staff regularly carries outstreetwork in Luxembourgto make prevention work as well aspromote the dropInservice itself.

A caring team with a wide range of skills

A nurse ispresent every day at the doctor’s office of the centre and a team of doctors take turns to be on duty on Wednesdays. The activity of the medical practice focuses mainly on thescreening of sexually transmitted infections, contraception and vaccination against hepatitis B and tetanus. Other medical and nursing care is also provided. Beneficiaries in need of care or treatment are referred – or even accompanied – to the appropriate facilities.

The team also supports service users who areexperiencing physical or psychologicalviolence,relationship problems or feelings ofisolation. Through the EXIT programme it also helps those who wish to leave the world of sexworkers.
