CLIENT STATEMENTS
“Jako mi je teško, on (trgovac) je dolazio da priča sa mojim stanodavcem, šeta se pored kuće. Pre nekoliko dana je dolazio njegov sin i tražio mi pare, pa sam pozvala policiju. Ne mogu više da izdržim ceo pritisak, dete ne mogu da izvedem napolje, sama ne mogu da prošetam, niti da spavam. Trebalo mi samo bezbedno mesto i da me barem neko razume, a to ste mi vi pružili. Hvala. ”
“Drage devojke, hvala Vam na svemu beskrajno! Divne ste prema meni i pružate mi podršku. Često kažem u sebi, nisi sama imaš ASTRU! Spasili ste jednoj devojci život i dali šansu da ostvari svoje ciljeve. Zaista sam presrećna što Vas imam. Hvala, na svemu! Volim Vas.”
“Ono što mi je najznačajnije bilo u ovih pet godina u terapiji je što sam pomalo ponovo počela da verujem ljudima, ne baš svima, ali bar nekima od njih.”
“It is very difficult for me. He (the trafficker) used to come to talk to my landlord. He also walks by my house. A few days ago, his son came and asked me for money, so I called the police. I can't take all the pressure anymore. I can't take the child outside; I can't walk alone or sleep. I just wanted a safe place and at least someone to understand me. And you gave me that. Thanks. ”
“Dear girls, thank you endlessly for everything! You are wonderful to me and supportive. I often say to myself: you are not alone, you have ASTRA. You saved a girl's life and gave her a chance to achieve her goals. I'm pleased to have you. Thank you for everything. I love you!”
“What is most important to me in these five years of therapy is that I started to trust people again. Not to all of them, but at least some of them.”
