Teen Trafficking Survivor Highlight & Insight
Relationships…every teenager has their share of drama around dating but with our teenaged trafficking survivors, it is a whole other story. Because of the severe trauma, our girls often form toxic relationships in their search for love. They will readily accept guys who cheat on them or abuse them.
This week, we are delving into a study on toxic relationships. Can you please pray for the girls and their hearts? Pray that God would set them free from current unhealthy relationships and help them to see their worth in his eyes.
