An Interview With Friends Of Maiti Nepal/Sex Trafficking

An Interview With Friends Of Maiti Nepal: Sexual Trafficking

http://www.thinktwiceradio.com/sue-marie/sue-marie.html

Brigitte Calize-Collins and Joe Collins, founders of "Friends of Maiti Nepal" speak of their own organization stemming from a sister organization, "Maiti Nepal" founded by Ms. Anuradha Koirala. Joe and Brigitte present both missions, the horrors of sexual trafficking, abuse, rape, torture, and what traffickers seek in potential victims. Positive preventative (mental, physical, emotional, spiritual) care, border control, education, awareness, legislation, and the strength of the survivors of sexual trafficking and trade are positive measures in the lives of women and children.
In the words of Anuradha, "Please tell the world about my girls."
