This guide raises awareness on various challenges faced by individuals who are victims of sexual exploitation, thus highlighting their complexity. It offers concrete and practical advice to facilitate active listening and immediate addressing of the person's needs. It emphasizes the importance of demonstrating openness, respecting the individual's pace, and avoiding judgment during interventions. This empathetic and respectful approach is crucial for establishing a bond of trust. Additionally, the guide provides various resources to guide individuals towards the support they need.

Furthermore, the guide points out that some interveners mistakenly believe they are obligated to adopt an abolitionist stance or a harm reduction approach. However, there is no clear distinction between abolitionist and non-abolitionist positions. Moreover, it also fails to distinguish between victims of sexual exploitation and individuals voluntarily working in the sex industry, which could lead to a limited understanding of the diverse realities and needs of these populations.
