Supporting sex workers

Faith-Based Facilitation can be used in many ways to build deeper relationships. This case study highlights the use of theological reflection using the FBF process in relation to a major decision at a planning meeting. It shows how carefully relating such a decision to fundamental beliefs and values can have a significant effect on the facilitation and decision-making of such a meeting.

The youth group at a corps (church) in a large city in South America noticed that there were commercial sex workers hanging around the streets near the Salvation Army corps hall every night. Some of the women and girls involved were in their own age group or younger, and they felt very concerned about their health and well-being.
