The excitement is rising and the countdown is officially on as we prepare for the highly anticipated She’s Still Missing Inaugural Sneaker Ball 2026 — a powerful and unforgettable evening that will unite our community through hope, awareness, healing, empowerment, and impact.
This extraordinary event is bringing together influential leaders, passionate advocates, survivors, entrepreneurs, and change-makers from across the city and beyond who are committed to standing together in the fight against human trafficking and supporting those impacted by exploitation.
As Committee Chair, I am beyond honored and excited to recognize one of the visionary leaders behind this incredible movement — The Remarkable Dr. Jennifer Dean-Wiley, Co-Founder and President of She’s Still Missing Foundation.
Dr. Jennifer Dean-Wiley is a nationally recognized transformational leader, Licensed Professional Counselor, ordained minister, entrepreneur, advocate, and humanitarian whose life’s work is centered around healing, restoration, empowerment, and service to others. She is the Founder and CEO of The Jennifer Experience™, a powerful platform providing mental health coaching, relationship strategy, organizational training, and transformational leadership designed to create sustainable personal and professional growth.
Known for her wisdom, compassion, authenticity, and powerful voice, Dr. Dean-Wiley has become a trusted leader in crisis management, mental health advocacy, and survivor-centered support. Her work extends across community organizations, leadership spaces, healthcare, and advocacy initiatives where she continues to inspire individuals to heal, grow, and reclaim their purpose.
As Co-Founder and President of She’s Still Missing Foundation, Dr. Dean-Wiley has helped build a movement committed to combating human trafficking and child exploitation through advocacy, awareness, education, and strategic community engagement. Her passion for this mission is deeply personal and rooted in her own journey of overcoming adversity, which now fuels her unwavering commitment to helping others break cycles, find healing, and rebuild their lives.
Houston, this is more than just an event — this is a powerful movement bringing people together to raise awareness, inspire change, restore hope, and stand united against human trafficking. This will be a night filled with purpose, impact, healing, empowerment, and community.
Lives will be touched. Hearts will be inspired. Voices will be empowered. And together, we will show what happens when a community rises to support a cause greater than itself.
This is the kind of experience that stays with you long after the night is over. The energy, the message, the people, and the mission will be unforgettable.
Houston… make sure YOU are in the room for this impactful and transformational evening. 💚👟
