Urban Light protects boys and men* by meeting their basic needs and empowers them through education, training, and counseling all to give them the freedom to choose a life beyond exploitation. In the heart of Chiang Mai, the Rising Dough Project a partnership between Urban Light and Sunline is transforming lives through the therapeutic power of baking. This innovative program provides young male survivors of trafficking with a pathway to healing and economic independence through culinary arts training.
