Alliance is a coalition of sex workers, health professionals, social
scientists, professional sex educators and their supporting networks. We
seek to encourage a better understanding of human sexuality by promoting
ethical and unbiased research into sexual subcultures; to promote saner
and more sensible approaches to policies relating to adult sexual health
and behavior. We use this information to educate and empower the public
to have healthy and rational attitudes about sexuality.
