We provide free day-care for our clients' pre-school children. The children of our clients are often left at home alone or unsupervised in the community. The risk factors are very high for sexual and physical abuse, and/or neglect which often causes a repeat of the cycle their mothers have experienced. Our daycare gives a safe, structured environment with stimulating and creative activities. In addition, we provide parenting classes to all mothers on a weekly basis.
These are important services to safeguard children, and to break the cycle of abuse and trafficking.

Our workshops build clients' inner capacity to teach decision-making and raise the standard of domestic, and psychological functioning, along with reducing the risk factors for re-trafficking, abusive relationships and negative life-choices.
