This section of
LibertadLatina.org
contains information regarding
the Hurricane Stan catastrophe unfolding in
early October, 2005. Aside from being a a
tragic event of human suffering, the risk of
greatly increased child and adult sex
trafficking exists in Stan's aftermath.
The world must do
everything possible to prevent a repeat of the
mass exploitation that occurred after Hurricane
Mitch struck Honduras and Nicaragua in late
1998.
