14 Girls Rescued from Sex Trafficking

Fourteen girls in South Asia are now recovering in our Residential Care home.

While most of the children had been forced to sell themselves just to survive, five were living with a parent or guardian who worked in the sex industry, putting the child in immediate danger of exploitation. These kids are often forced to witness sex acts and face sexual advances from their parents’ clients.

All the children have entered our local Residential Care home, where they’ll learn to cope with all they’ve endured and move toward a brighter future. Depending on their age and circumstances, they’ll also be equipped to return to school or find work to support themselves.

15 Rescued in South Asia

14 girls and one 19-year-old woman rescued from various forms of sex trafficking in South Asia

Our team in South Asia used their wide-ranging expertise to rescue the children and young woman from their abusers. Most of the survivors had been under the brutal control of their traffickers, but one was a victim of rape and another was forced into selling herself just to survive.

Several of the girls were rescued when rescue agents went undercover to offer them a chance at freedom. Agents collaborated with law enforcement to rescue the rest, including one raid that rescued 8 victims.

All of the survivors were returned home (some in other countries) or given a new, safe place to live.

Two Children Free from Traffickers

Raids in the Dominican Republic rescued two children from sexual exploitation.

Local law enforcement asked our agents to assist them when they got word of children suffering sexual abuse. We helped with surveillance and assisted police during the raid, which rescued the 16- and 13-year-old girls.

Three traffickers were arrested during the operations. Thanks to our team’s collaboration with local authorities, those criminals can no longer harm children.
