As you well know already, Chab Dai is committed to promoting best practices & the highest standard of programming to care for child & adult survivors, victims, and those at-risk of exploitation, or human trafficking. We believe that this same principle also applies to HOW we promote, educate, and raise funds for these programs.
We want to promote DIGNITY & HOPE, as well as ensure truth in our communications, nor compromising confidentiality or safety either. So about a year ago we started on a journey, searching high and low [in printed resources & the Bible] for best practices and examples.
And we shared these findings with our members, consulting them to glean from their experiences about how we could actually apply what we had read [book knowledge always sounds too good!]. We met over coffees, in forums with shelter directors around a large table, via email dialogues, and at our last member meeting with over 100 national and expat staff.
So we are proud to say that THIS is what WE have come up with.
We hope you will read it.
Share it.
And apply it.
Are children sex slaves?
Are they child prostitutes?
No, and no.
Is using a picture of a crying child sitting alone in a vulnerable situation dignifying OR safe?
We don’t think so.
Even if you are not a professional photographer, working with a non-profit, or a writer, YOU DO have a responsibility.
Do you have:
Facebook?
Twitter?
YouTube?
See, you do have a voice. Use it to promote SAFETY, TRUTH, & DIGNITY!
