NUM Featured: CrimeStoppers Connections Magazine
13 May 2022

NUM has been included in Crimestoppers’ Connection Magazine! This issue of the publication seeks to discuss how CrimeStoppers intends to make change happen when challenging violence against women and girls. 

It includes a feature from NUM’s very own Dr Raven Bowen, where Raven can be quoted saying:

“NUM exists because sex industry workers face significant barriers to receiving quality
non-judgmental support as survivors of crime. They tend not to report the violence and
harms that they experience to anyone, especially to police and public services, due to
experiences of discrimination, fear of being ‘outed’ and to avoid the negative impacts
that sex work stigma has on life chances. Sex workers who become known publicly are
often shamed, and face challenges to their credibility and worthiness.”
