Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to illustrate drug addiction treatment for women and to get an insight if and how they regard the issue of prostitution in women’s rehab. I will do this by reviewing if the context in law SoL 2001:453 kap. 5 § 9 can be applied to women in treatment for drug addiction with prostitution as their main funding source.

The major question is: do rehab facilities regard the issue of prostitution in women’s rehab?
To find my answers I preformed interviews at three drug rehab centers in Malmö and asked if they are implementing prostitution in their rehab plan for women. To insure a deeper understanding for the problems that the prostituted women face I contacted Prostitutionsgruppen in Malmö and Helena Cewers, sexologist and midwife, for guidance to my question formulations. According to background recurs, interviews with key persons and rehab actors, prostitutions is a subject that awakens many feelings and fears due to the stigma that surrounds the topic. The analysis result shows that insecurity, lack of understanding and awareness are the main reasons that prostitution rarely are a part of the rehabilitation plan for women. Still all of the actors regarding this evaluation agreed that there is a need for improvement and changes for women with drug addiction problems and prostitution considering their rehab. (Less)
