Traffickers prey on young girls who are dressed in shabby clothing, because shabby clothing usually indicates that the girl is not well cared for or maybe is orphaned. No one will miss her in other words. A girl that&#8217;s wearing a nice dress sends a signal that someone will miss her, thus discouraging the trafficker. The other benefit to giving these girls a nice dress is that it improves their self-esteem and gives them hope because someone far away, that doesn&#8217;t even know her, loves her and wants her to have a better life<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-1127\" src=\"\/mansfield\/files\/2015\/12\/after.jpg\" alt=\"after\" width=\"250\" height=\"250\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/mansfield\/files\/2015\/12\/after.jpg 250w, https:\/\/sigbi.org\/mansfield\/files\/2015\/12\/after-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 250px) 100vw, 250px\" \/>.
