Model Prostitution Law

The Model Prostitution Law, developed by the American Law Institute, seeks to provide a legal framework for regulating prostitution. It aims to decriminalize sex work, focusing on the safety and rights of sex workers while reducing criminal penalties for engaging in consensual adult sex work. The law emphasizes public health, harm reduction, and protection from exploitation. It encourages the establishment of licensing systems for sex work, while also considering necessary regulations to combat human trafficking and ensure the well-being of all parties involved. Ultimately, it advocates for a more humane approach to addressing sex work in society.
