"MAITI NEPAL was formed in 1993 by a group of socially committed professionals like teachers, journalists and social workers to help create a society free from sexual and all other forms of exploitation of children and women. Most of all, its special focus has always been on preventing trafficking for forced prostitution, rescuing flesh trade victims and rehabilitating them. The objectives of Maiti Nepal are: - to advocate, conduct awareness campaigns, seek public support, and create social pressure against girl trafficking by organizing various interaction programs and workshops at different levels; - to provide counselling, support, and life skills to girls/women who are at risk of being trafficked; - Rescue trafficked girls/women from brothels and repatriate them back to their home country; - to provide legal services, health counselling, and assistance to destitute women, survivors of girl trafficking and victims of domestic violence; - to rehabilitate survivors by providing them with education, counselling, and safe home; - to provide shelter to orphans and destitute children and help them with their overall development."
