About
The EEC provides support and technical resources for sectors working to reduce commercial sexual exploitation.
The EEC provides education about the harms of the sex trade that are often misunderstood and also provides technical assistance to implement innovative tactics to reduce demand for paid sex across Washington State. These combined efforts ensure that our community's focus on commercial sexual exploitation stays on the buyers driving demand rather than those engaging in the sex trade themselves.
