A Story about Child Protection and Human Trafficking

At CCPCR, we work to make sure all kids get to stay with their families, safe and sound!

Safe and Sound

In many countries, families may be very poor

So children are made to go to work at a job

Sometimes their boss is very mean to them

Sometimes their boss takes them to jobs

far away from home, and they don’t get to see their family

Many children don’t like leaving their families to work, and want to go home

Anti-Trafficking shelters like the Cambodian Center for the Protection of Children’s Rights helps these children. They help kids stop working, and lets children live in the shelter

while they find the children’s families.

When at the shelter kids go to school,

and take special classes in subjects like

English, computers, even dance and

yoga!

People from the shelter go to the

children’s villages, find their families, and tell them why

their children shouldn’t work.

Sometimes they

help the parents to find good jobs, so they won’t be as

poor.

When they are ready, children go back to their families.

They are happy to be home, and their

parents promise not to make them go back to work.

I think being at home with my

family is best! Do you?
