Sharp Circle Inc. is a community-based, nonprofit organization dedicated to liberating people from their internal and external obstacles through our innovative mentorship programs so they can freely add their unique value to the world. We work with people who want to shift their lives in an unprecedented and positive direction. We create around them a circle of individualized support, including people, resources, and new opportunities via community connections that are aligned with the individual's goals. - We are individual-centered and design programs around people's needs - We recognize people's desire to be pro-social and contribute resources to growing this perspective - We show people what they CAN do and what's possible - We focus on releasing pro-social behavior vs. restraining anti-social behavior - We guide people towards self-agency via new connections - We encourage people to stretch themselves out of the familiar in order to grow and experience expanded potential
