Since the early 1990s, Odanadi has worked tirelessly to rescue and rehabilitate individuals who have been trafficked, prostituted, enslaved or abused. Odanadi offers them a home, counselling, an education and career opportunities, in addition to assisting with prosecutions against traffickers and advocating to law enforcement.
