Who We Are

The SHECARES Centre, an initiative by SG Her Empowerment Limited, is Singapore’s only dedicated support centre offering trauma-informed care and coordinated pathways for all survivors (children, youth, men and women) of online harms, including impersonation, cyberbullying, image-based sexual abuse, and doxxing.

We provide a safe, confidential environment for survivors navigating their healing journeys through our helpline, textline, and face-to-face counselling. In partnership with Pro Bono SG, we also offer pro bono legal support. Where needed, we guide survivors through reporting processes with law enforcement and social media platforms.

Beyond direct support, SHECARES connects individuals with community resources, conducts public education, and delivers training for community partners. Our work is embedded in SHE’s broader advocacy and research mission — meaning this team contributes to sector-wide change, not just individual cases.
