Connecticut Rescue: A Second Chance

We are reaching out to help a Connecticut man who endured unimaginable hardship. For 20 years, he was held captive in a room, subjected to abuse, starvation, and neglect. He was rescued last month after courageously setting a fire to gain his freedom.

This brave individual, now at 32, is 5'9, 68 lbs., had been trapped in this horrific situation since he was just 11 years old. He had been deprived of basic medical and dental care, education, suffering both physically and mentally from the abuse he endured.

With the help of first responders, he was rescued from the fire, treated for smoke inhalation, and began to regain his sense of hope. Now, he is facing the immense challenge of rebuilding his life after such a traumatic experience.
