Social services
The social workers at Pro Sentret can provide practical help, support conversations and give advice and guidance. All of our social workers speak English, and some speak Spanish. If needed, we will provide an interpreter for you. You can be anonymous and everyone who works at Pro Sentret has a duty of confidentiality.
Practical help and advice:
Our social workers can assist you with contacting authorities or other welfare service providers, such as health services, child protection services, immigration authorities or the police. They can also give you information about your rights and obligations, possibilities and alternatives, regulations and legislation. You can talk with one of our social workers via telephone, video calls or face-to-face at the centre.
Do you need someone to talk to?
The social workers at Pro Sentret offer support conversations to service users, both short and long term. If you want someone to talk to about your situation, Pro Sentret has experienced staff who can assist you. The conversations can be about selling sex, but they don't have to be. You decide what you want to talk about and the conversations are adapted to your needs. Topics can for example be personal finances, mental health issues, expriences of violence and abuse or other traumas. We can sit in an office or talk over the phone/video call.
Pro Sentret focuses on harm reduction. We want to be someone you can trust, think out loud with and collaborate with. You know your situation best.
If you have been victim of physical or sexual violance, we can help you contact medical services or the Police.

The day centre "Stua"
When you enter the door to Pro Sentret, Stua is on the left. Stua is a drop-in offer for people who have experience in trading or selling sexual services regardless of gender, nationality, residence status or living situation. Stua is only open to those who have experience with selling or trading sexual services.
When we are open in the evening Stua is staffed and we serve dinner. The food is free. In Stua, you will meet staff at Pro Sentret in an informal setting. We are here for you if you need someone to talk to or need help with something. Twice a year we organize a large party (before summer and before Christmas). We decorate and serve extra good food, have games and a dance floor. Check the website or our social media profiles to find out what date it will be this year. Apart from the parties, we also have various activities throughout the year. It can be self-defense courses, themed evenings, Christmas workshops, bingo or film evenings.
In Stua there is free wifi, PC and printer, telephone, washer and dryer, TV, books you can borrow, free coffee and tea, and a stand with free condoms. Many people use Stua as a place to relax or for socialising. You choose what you want to use Stua for. Stua is also the waiting room for those going to see a nurse/doctor/social worker.
You do not need to be clean from drugs or alcohol when you come to the day centre, but you are not allowed to use substances while on our premises.
