More Information About this Project

Project Needs and Beneficiaries

Serving residents and communities of the sexually abused and "sexploited" has seen the faces of cruelty, ignorance, and poverty. Fieldworkers (renewed prostitutes) venture out into the slums, the docksides and various redlight districts offering support and a way out. We continue our journey together in our homes where we see transformation, justice, and human dignity restored. Our lives intertwine and become a passage to new life.

Activities

Young girls and women find safe harbor, receive free education, legal and medical assistance, psychological and spiritual counselling as well as livelihood skills training in various sustainable development programs in 6 centers and 5 shelters.
