17 children rescued from sexual exploitation in Kenya
The children are now free from sex trafficking and exploitation.
The children were between 7 and 17 years old, and two of them were boys. Half of the children were being trafficked by adults, while the other half were forced to sell their bodies just to survive without the presence of a trafficker.
These kids face incredible challenges moving forward, but we are committed to supporting them as they get their start in a life of freedom. You can read the encouraging words of a Kenyan survivor who overcame daunting odds on our blog.
