  • Carlos Toledo (center), director and founder of Nuestros Derechos--Our Rights- a Guatemalan non-governmental organization that tries to help the children off the streets and into society, talks to Wilma Janet Chacon (right), a 17-year-old girl who at times is a niña de la calle, in the children's court of the Organismo Judicial in Guatemala City. Toledo and Alejandro Estrada (left) were helping Chacon try to get joint custody of the child she had with another street child who has since reformed himself. The court said she had to stay off the streets in order to have any custody. Not long after, she chose the streets.
