A Minnesota-born organization working in South Sudan is bringing children abducted by the Lord’s Resistance Army back home. Tiffany Easthom, Country Director for Nonviolent Peaceforce, speaking to an audience of over 100 people in St. Paul, recounted how Nonviolent Peaceforce child protection specialists drove into the Democratic Republic of the Congo from their location just inside South Sudan to bring home Betima, a girl who had been kidnapped by the LRA four years ago. She was returned to her family and community.
