Blair Hopkins of SWOP Behind Bars is this Week’s Guest on
Adult Site Broker Talk.
SWOP Behind Bars is a non-profit service organization that is based on human rights, harm reduction, services provision, and prison and jail outreach.
All individuals involved in the sex trade, whether current or former, can access their services through the Sex Worker Community Support line and its associated chat feature. They directly assist sex workers, survivors of human trafficking who have been incarcerated, and those seeking peer support, resource referrals, and crisis care.
They ensure that incarcerated community members are aware of the support line, providing them with information to aid in re-entry and gap services upon release.
Their support line operators include representatives from the populations they serve, as well as experts in domestic violence and crisis intervention.
The support line is discovered through internet searches, word of mouth, referrals from service providers, and adult platforms where the hotline is advertised.
Blair Hopkins began her adult industry work as a photographer and videographer in the early 2000s. She is the author of All in A Day's (Sex) Work - "a photographic investigation into the daily lives of the intriguing, oft-maligned and dedicated professionals who occupy our fantasies and indulge our deepest erotic urges."
Hopkins joined SWOP Behind Bars in 2018 and now serves as Executive Director. She lives in New Orleans.
