Parade Magazine: Fighting to End Slavery

June 22, 2009

Parade Magazine recently featured Somaly Mam in its Intellegence Report column. Here’s an excerpt:

How does the Somaly Mam Foundation help other sex slaves?
It can take five minutes to raid a brothel but years for the rescued girls to recover. Some want to commit suicide. I show them that they can survive, they can have dignity. We have three shelters— two for vocational training, another for young children. We let them stay long-term. We help them find jobs. We are a family.”
