Title
Surviving rebel abduction in Uganda

Description
Uganda’s rebel Lord’s Resistance Army, LRA, regularly abducts young children to join its forces either as child soldiers or sex slaves. Since 2002, almost 12,000 children in Northern Uganda have been abducted. Young girls become pregnant and cling to the LRA for survival. Social workers are now changing the future of these young women by providing alternative means of generating household income.
