Seven girls rescued in Cambodia
All seven girls, ages 14 to 17, have joined our community care program.
The children were rescued from the sex industry working in places such as bars and beer gardens.
Children and their families will work with our caseworkers to establish a unique freedom plan. The beginning of the plan will be similar for all seven, prioritizing a health check, trauma-rehabilitation program and practical skills class.
After that, survivors might decide to pursue their education or learn a vocational skill. Our teams will walk alongside each one and help her follow her dreams.
