15 girls from the Restavek Freedom Transitional Home are becoming published authors thanks to Shout Mouse Press! These young women, with the help of Shout Mouse Press, have written 2 children’s books that will be for both US and international audiences.
Shout Mouse Press’ mission is to empower these 15 brave young women who grew up in restavek to become authors, telling their story to the world: creating awareness, creating outrage, creating empathy, and instilling hope in the children currently living in domesticity to know that their story matters, and their voices are being heard.
