Narconon Uganda

Uganda is a country where the population has increased more than seven-fold over the last 65 years. Half the current population is under fifteen years of age. At the same time, literacy figures are low and poverty rates are high. As a result, Ugandan children suffer high rates of slavery, forced prostitution and substance abuse.
