Welcome to Shyne! We are a pioneering organization dedicated to equipping survivors of sex trafficking by transforming their potential into real-world success. At Shyne, we believe in the incredible strength and resilience of survivors and are committed to providing the resources and support they need to build fulfilling careers and thriving businesses.
Our Mission
Shyne creates a brave space for survivors to rediscover and harness their innate strengths. Moving beyond traditional service models that focus on deficits and vulnerabilities, we employ an Asset-Based Community Development approach. This method leverages survivors' unique talents and dreams, positioning them as the natural leaders for social innovation and impact initiatives.
What We Do
At Shyne, we nurture big dreams and provide tangible opportunities to achieve them. Our Career Launch Pad offers paid internships and professional development that equip survivors with the skills and confidence to succeed in business. Our members are not just participants; they are the CEOs of their lives, pursuing their passions and driving change in their communities.
Why Shyne?
-Strength-Based Approach: We focus on the strengths and aspirations of survivors, enabling them to transform their lives and become leaders.
-Real Impact: None of our members have returned to the sex trade, instead, they thrive in meaningful careers, from running businesses to becoming community leaders.
-Comprehensive Support: Our supportive network includes high-quality coaching, classes, and connections that foster entrepreneurial spirit and innovation.
