Savannah Sly is the founder and co-director of New Moon Network, a non-profit that strives to strengthen the movement for sex workers’ rights through funding, technical assistance, and leadership development.
She is a board member of the Woodhull Freedom Foundation, the only U.S. organization dedicated to defending sexual freedom as a fundamental human right.
She also serves on the global steering committee of the Sex Work Donor Collaborative and has been advocating for the rights and welfare of people in the sex trade since 2013.
Drawing from both lived and studied experience, she discusses the impacts of criminalization, surveillance, discrimination, and stigma on sex workers. She uplifts holistic solutions to address exploitation in the sex trade.
Her role as a coalition organizer has been instrumental, particularly with the ACLU’s Tech Equity Coalition and grassroots sex worker initiatives like the OldProProject, SWOP-Seattle, and the Sex Workers Outreach Project USA, where she once served as board president.
Her writing has been published in Brookings, Teen Vogue, and Psychology Today.
New Moon Network supports sex worker and survivor-led organizations in the U.S. that are focused on advancing the rights and welfare of people with lived experience in the sex trade.
As an intermediary fund, New Moon channels financial resources into the sex workers’ rights movement and provides support for grassroots leaders with grant writing, fiscal sponsorship, and budgeting.
The New Moon team advises corporations, foundations, and high-net-worth individuals on identifying impactful projects and opportunities.
Since its inception in 2022, New Moon has brokered investments of $1.5 million into 50+ sex worker-led organizations in the US.
