In Thailand, approximately 800,000 children drop out of school each year, exacerbating their vulnerability to trafficking and exploitation. Since 2008, The Freedom Story has protected children from trafficking by addressing the root causes of vulnerability, such as a lack of education, poverty, lack of legal status, and home life instability. We stop child trafficking before harm occurs through locally-led prevention that educates children, strengthens families, and builds safer communities.
