In parts of South and Southeast Asia, sex traffickers use force, fraud, or coercion to deceive girls. Others promise legitimate, well-paying jobs, but then force them into brothels. The INTERNATIONAL JUSTICE MISSION works undercover to gather and document evidence of trafficking and sexual exploitation. Agency attorneys and social workers then collaborate with local authorities to rescue victims of forced prostitution. Girls placed in aftercare homes receive rehabilitation services in order to reintegrate into society.

For over ten years, the International Justice Mission has worked in India, Cambodia, Thailand and the Philippines to bring perpetrators to justice and restore young victims of forced prostitution to wholeness and hope.

More than 2 million children are exploited in the global commercial sex trade.
