Marita Verón was a 23-year-old mother who disappeared in Argentina in 2002 while on her way to a hospital appointment. When police wouldn’t help, her parents investigated on their own. What they discovered was horrifying: Marita had been kidnapped by sex traffickers.

Marita’s mother set up a foundation in Marita’s honor to offer legal, developmental, and rehabilitation services to trafficking survivors. You can find more information on it here: fundacionmariadelosangeles.org
