India is the epicenter of human trafficking and is reported to be the most dangerous country in the world to be a woman because of the high risk of sexual violence and slave labor (CNN). The most prevalent destination for those being trafficked is employment in the commercial sex industry, and 20% of those being trafficked are under the age of 16.
Most of these underage victims are girls who come from illiterate, lower-caste families. Without an education and vocational skills, experience has shown that, even after the rescue, these girls will often return to the sex trade simply to survive. There is a critical need for high-quality aftercare services.
New Horizons established our residential facility in the Indian state of Andhra Pradesh in 2018 and is currently providing comprehensive rehabilitative services (including trauma counseling, medical care, educational opportunities, and vocational training) to 65 girls ages 12-21. Our program allows the girls to acquire the confidence and skills they need to be able to make alternate choices for themselves and their futures.
Once they turn 18, girls who are interested in pursuing a university degree, additional vocational training, and/or participating in a formal internship program have the option of moving into New Horizons’ Transition House for up to 3 additional years. Today, a number of our girls are attending junior college, and several recent graduates have started their own small businesses and are not only supporting themselves but their families as well.
Please consider partnering with us at www.newhorizonshouse.org. Your gift provides hope, dignity, and restoration: It costs just $4,000 to provide full support for one of our girls for an entire year.
