Safe House InfoYou came to this website because you want to change your current situation. Perhaps you currently work in the sex or adult entertainment industry, or maybe you did in the past, and you are now looking for change and healing.
We are eager to provide support and services no matter your religious beliefs, gender identity, sexual orientation, race, nationality, social position, or culture. You won’t find discrimination here. Please don’t hesitate to make contact. We are here to help!
We can support you if any of these situations apply to you:
Sex ‘Work’
- You work or have worked as a ‘sex worker’ (whether that be in a brothel, on the street, online, or somewhere else), ‘escort’, or in a massage parlour where you are asked to provide sexual services.
- You have participated in filmed ‘sex work’ (aka porn, or webcam modelling, such as Only Fans)
- You work or have worked as a stripper or ‘exotic dancer’.
- You have been or are in a ‘Sugar Daddy / Sugar Baby’ dynamic, whereby you have been paid to accompany or provide ‘companionship’ to a man or men, that may or may not include full sexual intercourse.
Sex Trafficking
You are having full sexual intercourse with friends, family members or ‘clients’. The person who finds those people and brings them to you, or decides when and how it will happen, takes payment in exchange for you having sex with other people.
Whether this is your father, brother, uncle, a carer, a friend, or someone else, this is not ok.
If you are in Victoria, this is only legal if you take all your earnings home with you and decide on how you spend it. You cannot be forced or coerced to give this money to those you are close with, or to your boyfriend, husband or family member.
You have the right to feel safe.
You may have been forced by a friend, family member, pimp, or ‘manager’ to be paid to have sex with men you don’t know.
You may have been brought to Australia and your passport was taken from you. You were obliged to provide sexual services as payment for your journey and/or for the return of your passport.
We are here to help you. Please get in touch via info [@] pinkcross.org.au.
