EMPOWER
EMPOWER ("Education Means Protection Of Women Engaged in Recreation"), also known as Centre for Sex Workers' Protection or Moolniti Songserm Okard Pooying ((タイ語:มูลนิธิส่งเสริมโอกาสผู้หญิง)), is a non-profit organization in Thailand that supports sex workers by offering free classes in language, health, law and pre-college education, as well as individual counselling. The organization also lobbies the government to extend regular labor protections to sex workers and to decriminalize sex work. The organization maintains centres in Patpong (Bangkok), Chiang Mai, Mae Sai and Patong Beach, Phuket.〔
==Philosophy==
EMPOWER is an organization that represents and provides services exclusively to sex workers. Unlike some Thai organizations operating in this field, EMPOWER's guiding principles include a non-judgmental stance on sex work and the belief that sex workers should not be pressured to leave the trade.〔A Wilson, (When sex is a job. An interview with Chantawipa Apisuk of Empower. ) In: ''Learning about sexuality: a practical beginning'', edited by Sondra Zeidenstein and Kirsten Moore. New York, New York, Population Council, 1996. Pages 333-342.〕 Partly because of this, EMPOWER receives minimal financial support from the Thai government; the bulk of donations come from abroad.〔
