Vietnam is primarily a source country for men, women, and children trafficked for the purposes of sexual exploitation and forced labor, but also marriages. The main destination countries are China and Cambodia, but there are other destination countries within Asia as well. Vietnam is also a recipient country for trafficked persons from Cambodia and serves as a transit country for Chinese children to Cambodia . In addition, internal trafficking of women and children has become apparent, mainly from rural areas to urban areas.
Our Program:
Our beautician school provides young women a skill to earn income for themselves. We have been operating since 2008 with a grant donation from the “Cecil Stephens Foundation”. The girls typically stay for 6 to 9 months of training until they are confident enough to venture out. We’ve had over 100 young women graduate from our program with 1 opening up her own beauty shop in Vietnam.
