What’s in our name?
Shift is not an acronym. Shift is named because with the program we wanted to see:
- a shift in the quality of life for all people involved in the sex trade
- a shift in perceptions about the sex trade- recognizing that sex work is work
- a shift in working conditions
- a shift in the language used by the community and media when talking about sex work
Shift provides support, outreach, education, advocacy, referrals, and counseling to individuals involved in, or those who have been involved in sex work. Our program is not exit based; therefore exiting is not a requirement to access our services. We recognize that for many, sex work is a choice. Our services are non-judgmental, free to access, and barrier free.
If you have any questions, comments or would like more information or services, please feel free to contact us.
I look forward to hearing from you!
