She’s someone: Humanising women involved in street based sex work

St Kilda Gatehouse provides support to those involved in street sex work as a result of hardship. Greeves Street, St Kilda is a renowned location for street based sex work in Melbourne, Australia. Often those who work on the streets are misunderstood, dehumanised and blamed for the violence perpetrated against them. Sally Tonkin proposes that addressing any social issue starts with acknowledging an individual’s humanity and an innate desire for recognition. When Tracy Connelly was murdered, Sally Tonkin challenged the media, and the people of St Kilda, not to forget her name.
