Episode notes
Undercover Visit That Sparked Action
- Haejin Fujimura describes entering a brothel undercover and meeting a six-month-old born and raised under the mother's bed.
- Holding the infant revealed the generational trap of trafficking and sparked her urgent, personal commitment to intervene.
Gap In Services For Generational Restoration
- Fujimura noticed many anti-trafficking services existed but none focused on empowering entire family units across generations.
- That gap motivated her to seek local partners who could pursue generational restoration rather than one-off rescues.
From Abandoned Brothel To Sahasim Center

- They built a local team of 25 to serve children and mothers toward exiting and reintegration.
