Prostitution Research and Education (founded in 1995) is a San Francisco-based 501(c)3 nonprofit organization[1][2] The purpose of the organization is to conduct research on prostitution, pornography, and trafficking as well as offer education and consultation to other researchers, survivors, the public, and policymakers.
