SANGRAM has been working with sex workers since 1992, using peer education to stop the spread of HIV. In 1996, the organization’s peer education program broadened into the Veshya AIDS Muqabla Parishad (VAMP), a collective of 5,000 sex workers in western Maharashtra and North Karnataka. SANGRAM has also initiated an HIV/AIDS project among transport and migrant workers, as well as a support group for men who have sex with men.
