Gov. Kathy Hochul\u2019s administration will bat for the \u201cworld\u2019s oldest profession<\/a>\u201d by launching a free healthcare program for sex workers. The state Health Department of Health has awarded $1 million in public funds over two years to two contractors as part of the new \u201csex worker health pilot program.\u201d Under the initiative, sex workers in New York City and western New York will be provided with primary, sexual, and behavioral health care and dental care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe Health Department remains committed to providing affirming, compassionate support and quality services to all residents without stigma and discrimination. Access to comprehensive sexual health services improves the quality of life for everyone,\u201d a DOH spokesperson said. \u201cIndividuals participating in this program often experience discrimination, violence, and threats to their emotional well-being. They are more vulnerable to sexually transmitted infections, yet lack access to quality routine screening,\u201d a statement added. The Hochul administration is also ramping up healthcare facility funding to boost medical staffing and care for New York\u2019s\u00a0transgender patients\u00a0as part of another two-year pilot program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
