Street work is a key part of our work to build relationships with women in their current environment and offer basic help.
Outreaches, also known as street work, meets people in prostitution where they are – namely in prostitution. This can take place in a variety of locations: for example, in apartment brothels, in walk-in brothels, in massage parlors, in FKK clubs, on the street, in love mobiles, or in escort services.
We understand street work primarily as an offer of relationship. Through regular visits, characterized by appreciation and respect, a relationship offer is made, which people in prostitution can accept if they wish. Relationships form the basis for assistance, new perspectives, and – if desired – an exit from prostitution.
In Hamburg and Frankfurt, members of our teams are regularly present in red-light districts to build relationships with women in prostitution and to offer help in their respective situations.
We support the creation of new street work teams and provide training for existing teams. As an organization, we support the creation of drop-in centres in the red-light district as well as cafés for women working in prostitution. We are connected with around 100 volunteer teams across the German-speaking region. Occasionally, we receive requests for exit assistance and admissions to our HOMEs through the efforts of these teams.
In Frankfurt, we provide conceptual and financial support to the drop-in centers in the red-light district run by the association Haus der Hoffnung e.V., and partially through our own staff members. In the contact café, women find a safe space for breaks, encounters, and conversations. There are beverages and clothing donations along with an listening ear for problems, and practical support for those wishing to exit prostitution.
