Care Leavers
Legal Toolkit
Brighter Path has funded the printing of an Emerge Lanka legal toolkit. Designed by lawyers at iProbono, working with Emerge, this toolkit is written in three language – Sinhala, Tamil and English. They set out basic rights and legal options for young women. The toolkit is intended to be user friendly for vulnerable girls who may not know the law and their rights. Designed for participants in the Emerge Lanka programme we are delighted to support this initiative and we will also be giving them to our own Brighter Path care leavers.
