Lantern Rescue is working to bring light into the darkness of human trafficking, specifically in the Dominican Republic where hundreds of villages, known as Batays, are home to ethnically Haitian people who have been enslaved for generations. These communities are plagued by poverty, lack of education, and exploitation, with children being forced into labor and sex slavery. Lantern Rescue is working to provide aid, support investigations, and share the gospel with these communities, bringing hope and freedom to those trapped in this cycle of slavery.
