36 Survivors Enroll in Freedom Plans in Africa

36 girls from three countries bravely accepted freedom from exploitation.

All were enduring sexual exploitation just to survive. Only three were able to attend school; the rest had been forced to drop out. Among the survivors are six young mothers with babies of their own.

The future will be challenging, but our hope is that they’ll be prepared to face those challenges as free girls and women.

While enrolled in our programs, survivors have the opportunity to reengage their education, either in school or skills training. Last month, a survivor from Uganda said, “Now I have hope. I have learned more about God, and I have a skill (tailoring)!”

Besides joining a supportive community in a safe, secure home, the girls will participate in trauma resilience training and have the chance to pursue job training that will help them stay free.

All the children have been enrolled in our programming to help equip them to advance into brighter futures free from exploitation.

While most of the survivors were forced to sell their bodies to survive, four of the kids were being trafficked by the adults who should’ve been caring for them. We are currently working to provide these children safe, caring homes where they can learn to be kids again. We work with community leaders to find and vet local families that will give these kids the love they need. To read about one girl who benefited from this program, click here:
