Exiting Prostitution provides a critical re-examination of the
growing body of literature on exiting and desistance. Moving beyond
accounts which are mainly centred on men desisting from crime, this
book focuses on female desistance, particularly in relation to
prostitution and the exiting process.With interviews from over one
hundred women involved in prostitution, the authors uniquely
examine the exiting process considering not only the barriers and
obstacles that women face when trying to leave prostitution, but
also their individual strengths, capacities and aspirations. In
this way, this book aims to present an approach that is more
positive and progressive. It also provides a guide to best practice
through an examination of the types of support that are currently
available to those women involved in both on-street and off-street
prostitution, and develops an outline model of support.Written by a
highly experienced team of experts in the field, this book provides
useful guidelines for practitioners and policymakers on types of
intervention and ways in which to further develop exiting
programmes.
