Healing for Sexual Violence Survivors in Colombia
Organization information
MADRE, An International Women's Human Rights Org.
Location: New York, United States of America
Summary
Colombia's war has been going on for so long, most people don't remember what peace was like. MADRE and Taller de Vida, our local sister organization, are there for former child soldiers caught up in this violence. And we're there for girls who've survived sexual violence in the war. Through counseling and human rights trainings, these young girls receive the support they need to heal. They are able to rebuild from the traumas they've endured, to seek justice and to demand an end to violence.
