Sex Worker Parenting Support Group
Maggie's has identified that there's interest in a sex worker parenting support group. This would be a peer-led group wherein participants could openly share their experiences and receive advice/recommendations from other group members, as well as guest facilitators in relation to specific topics. The group would initially be virtual, with the potential to progress to in-person meetings depending on COVID-19 guidelines/considerations.
