(In this video, some of our older girls are teaching the new little ones that we rescued when the rebel army said they would kill any child they found on the streets. The boys would typically be taken to fight and the girls would typically be taken as slaves.

Yes they are so little, but they live in a culture where it is common for women and girls to not even think that they can look a man in the eyes, let along defend themselves. We want to ingrain it early into their minds and nervous systems that they have a right to protect themselves if they choose to.)

“This month my girls will work about proactivity.

Proactive: as dada teach us be proactive is putting yourself in safe situations and around safe people and taking yourself out of unsafe situations and out of relationship with unsafe people. And lesson one and two check it on the video.”
