Scarlet Cord

Scarlet Cord operates in the Red Light District of Amsterdam, providing rescue and rehabilitation to women forced into prostitution. Scarlet Cord is also continuing their work of prevention education with excellent results. They are now moving forward with an expansion project which will provide housing for women coming out of the Red Light District as they go through rehab, counseling, educational and household management training. This is an intense 18-month program in which the women have an in-home mentor as they learn new life skills and prepare for the freedom and responsibility of an independent life.
