Tens of thousands of talibe children are homeless, neglected, abused, and exploited by Quranic school teachers, marabouts. Many impoverished families send their kids to the schools (daara) for religious indoctrination (talibe is Arabic for discipline), education, and care. Unfortunately, many marabouts exploit the talibe to beg for food and money on the streets. The daaras are places of unspeakable abuse and many children prefer life on the street to returning to the daaras. These children have endured unspeakable trauma and care givers seek equipping to better help talibe children flourish.
