The process used to prepare this submission was highly consultative, and followed the best practice
\nmodels of sex worker engagement in policy and advocacy that Scarlet Alliance believes delivers highly
\neffective outcomes. Sex workers in Queensland were invited to contribute their experiences of the
\nprevious sex worker service, and requirements for a new service through a transparent process,
\nincluding an anonymous survey, and through participation in the submission writing process.
\nThe process undertaken for developing this submission involved sex workers in Queensland. The two
\ncommunity based sex worker organisations in Queensland have indicated their support for the
\nrecommendations contained within this submission.
\nPeer education is highly valued by sex workers in Queensland. This submission advises on the
\nessential requirements to operationalise this within a new service and provides a checklist for
\nsuccessful service delivery for sex workers.
\nEssential to this response is the development of appropriate sex worker organisation\/s. Splitting
\nfunding for sex worker services among existing non-peer based organisations would work directly
\nagainst the long term aim of establishing a sustainable response to sex worker HIV and STI prevention
