Child exploitation

Here is a story about how a member of the Changemakers community is making a difference for abused children in Thailand:

Every child deserves a safe and secure childhood, and in Thailand there’s an organization working to make this a possibility for hundreds of kids. Founded in 1993 by children’s rights pioneer, Montri Sinthawichai, the Child Protection Foundation is Thailand’s first community-based organization that shelters abused children and helps their families—including abusive parents—address the root causes of abuse.

Montri observed the tragic neglect and abuse among migrant worker’s children, who were often left unattended by parents struggling to maintain two or three jobs, leaving them vulnerable to sexual exploitation and drugs.
