> Dear Peggy,

>  <http://org.salsalabs.com/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=RL1vYwrTkPeIrJrwogElVeZUUg5bkhqJ>We’re here in Durban, South Africa, at the 21st International AIDS Conference talking about woman-centered HIV prevention, treatment, and care. At CHANGE, we believe that all women should have access to the health and rights they need, and female sex workers are no exception. And that’s why we are proud to share with you our brand new report <http://org.salsalabs.com/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=XLVGuvncbcVA8aITSj1u6Cx%2B68nEM%2BSi>, “All Women, All Rights, Sex Workers Included: U.S. Foreign Assistance and the Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights of Female Sex Workers.” 
> 
> 
> 
> This report is the first of its kind because it identifies both best practices to advance the health and rights of female sex workers and it assesses how U.S. foreign assistance can better conform with those practices. And, while we know that advancing female sex workers’ rights is critical to addressing the HIV epidemic, we also know that that their health and rights extend beyond HIV. So does our report. 
>

> 
> Female sex workers are women first and share many of the health needs as women everywhere, including family planning, respectful maternal health care, access to safe abortion, and protection from gender-based violence. This report provides an in-depth analysis of the comprehensive health and rights of female sex workers.

> We invite you to read the executive summary of the report here <http://org.salsalabs.com/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=ENkGWOInPD9jV0PJeFD7E%2BZUUg5bkhqJ> and the full report here <http://org.salsalabs.com/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=BMfgM69tG%2F5kERE2g%2FMEkeZUUg5bkhqJ> and to share it with your networks and colleagues.
