A21 Walk for Freedom Elyria

10/15/2025

Two women were brought to safety from situations of sexual exploitation in Greece, thanks to the swift action of local authorities and the dedicated support of our A21 Greece team.

Both women were deceived by false promises, each lured by opportunities that turned into exploitation far from home. Yet through moments of courage, they reached out for help and were connected to A21’s team, where they received immediate safety, care, and ongoing support.

Today, both survivors are on their journey toward restoration and freedom, receiving psychosocial and medical care through A21’s Freedom Center and safe accommodation programs.

This win is a powerful reminder that freedom is possible and that every partnership, every report, and every act of awareness plays a role in making this happen. Thank you for standing with us to bring freedom across the world.
