As one of Child’s Dream’s higher education partners, Village Focus International (VFI) has been empowering vulnerable girls, young women and communities in Lao PDR since 2000. Their strong determination and focus has led to the success of their programmes and their recognition as the leader in Lao PDR in the fight against human trafficking. In 2008, VFI established the Home of Dreams, a residential vocational training and education centre aiming to improve the quality of life of human trafficking victims in southern Lao PDR. The shelter offers a safe, healing environment with quality health services, vocational training, education and societal reintegration assistance. To date, VFI operates two out the only three trafficking shelters in Lao PDR.
