Freedom 61 is a Christian organisation based in Latvia’s capital city, Riga, and is an initiative of Youth With A Mission (YWAM).
Taking its name from Isaiah 61.1, Freedom 61’s mission is to proclaim freedom to victims of human trafficking, freedom to men who are buying women for sex, and also to protect the freedom of those who are at risk of being trafficked.
Former policewoman
It is almost five years since Freedom 61 began work in Riga. Heading the ministry is Lysette Klop, a former policewoman from the Netherlands.
