Girls Back Home

At the heart of the trafficking and exploitation, the problems lay with the desire to escape poverty. The girls are recruited by traffickers believed to help find work. Most of them also have the fairy tale dreams about a beautiful life waiting for them abroad. They migrate willingly thinking that they will be au pairs or waitresses making a lot of money, and instead they end up locked in apartments without seeing the light of day for months. Often they are forced to serve more than 20 clients per day. Most of the time if they manage to return to their homeland, it is with the help of a client who handled sending back the girl. Back home, the girls face psychological problems and shame. Most of them never reveal to their families the horrors of what really happened while they were away.
