In September 2017, 15-year-old Prospelanda Aime tried to cross the border between Haiti and the Dominican Republic with an older woman she said was her aunt. She ended up at Santa Teresita del Niño Jesús, a church-run shelter for potentially trafficked children and unaccompanied minors trying to cross the border. (GSR photo / Chris Herlinger)
