Vanali Carries Her Family Forward

Vanali (right) and two other survivors after their rescue in 2023

Our social worker Bharti recently visited Vanali (rescued from a brothel in Chandrapur in August 2023). Vanali is safe and living with her family in Telangana.

Vanali’s husband is struggling with back issues and is unable to work. This has caused a financial strain on the family. Bharti encouraged Vanali to enroll in a tailoring course so she can support her family. Her husband agreed to this idea, and they are hopeful this will give them a way forward.

Vanali’s older daughter and granddaughter were also visiting that day. Bharti was glad to see Vanali delighting in her granddaughter's presence. It was a reminder of how far Vanali has come, and how important it is to keep supporting survivors as they rebuild their lives.
