Breaking the Chain Through Education

Founded in 2006, Breaking the Chain Through Education is a charity based in Verona, United States working on human rights, children & youth, education.

Breaking the Chain Through Education (BTCTE) is a grassroots charity that works to eradicate child trafficking and forced labour in impoverished regions of Ghana. It provides long-term support to child trafficking survivors, including rehabilitation, housing, food security, health care, education and vocational training, and continues care until beneficiaries can live independently. Its work is based on monitoring by field agents, who visit each beneficiary twice a month. The organisation was started in 2006 by a New Jersey teacher and his students and has an office in Ghana, staffed by local field agents and a country director, alongside a US-based board and team.
