    Open Access•Wendy Macias-Konstantopoulos, Wendy L Macias-Konstantopoulos et al.•ARTICLE•Frontiers in Public Health•2026

    Introduction Children of female sex workers (CFSW) are a particularly marginalized population of children who experience similar negative health, social, and economic outcomes as their mothers.
