Ricardo, the director of the home, said girls make up the majority of their population. “In some cases there are social risks, especially with girls. In this country there are gangs—they have had a connection with [the girls] and they’re instructing them what to do," he said. "The girls aren’t criminals, the girls we have here. But there is a risk because they are girls. They’re very innocent and they’re very pretty—the gang members want them." Image by Kayli Plotner. El Salvador, 2016.")
