Grant Description

Fundacion Amauta will refurbish a transit shelter for TIP victims, including those who return to Ecuador and are awaiting reunion with their families.

Amauta expects to reintegrate 200 TIP victims and educate 3,000 people regarding TIP in the shelter's first year of operation.

This project will also serve to train families and victims in micro-credit businesses and provide psychological services and legal assistance.
