Alicia* was being forced to serve dozens of customers a day — and she was tired.
This young mom in Latin America had two small children. The youngest was just two months old. Despite having given birth so recently, the traffickers who were trading Alicia’s time and body for money continued to force her to meet quotas. If she met their requirements, they would grant her a meager $10 a day.
While Alicia was serving buyers, her children had nowhere to go. The traffickers operating the brothel did not care. They insisted she give customers what they wanted while her little girls lay on the floor in the same room.

The Exodus Road could not stand to see a situation like that continue.
Our team members in Latin America worked alongside local law enforcement partners to gather information about Alicia’s situation. They knew the need was urgent. The Exodus Road’s investigators met Alicia and her two daughters in secret and took them to the nearby police station.
As soon as the family was safe, our team arranged accommodations, food, medicine, and other essential care for Alicia and her daughters. We will continue to offer them support as they build a new life. Meanwhile, we are continuing to work with law enforcement in the pursuit of those responsible for the trauma Alicia and her daughters have suffered.
Alicia and her precious little girls are receiving care today because of you. Thank you!
