35 years ago, when Prerana began it’s interventions there was a cycle of intergenerational trafficking - where every child born to a prostituted women was a free recruit into the sex trade and its allied activities. Prerana came up with the novel idea of a Night Care Centre where the children of the prostituted women would have access to opportunities and would be safe from the threats of the red-light area. Mrs. Priti Patkar, the Co-founder of Prerana, talks about the situation of these children back when Prerana started it’s work and Prerana’s model of preventing interventional trafficking into the sex trade. We answer questions like, 

What are the programs put in place in order to protect these children from intergenerational trafficking?

What is the Night Care Centre (NCC) and what does it do?

What was the response of the brothel keepers when a facility like NCC came into place? And many more.
