Queenie, a Filipina domestic worker, holds her seven-day-old baby, Yuan. When Queenie learned that she was pregnant, she asked her employer to allow her to return to the Philippines. The next day, the police arrived at her workplace and told her that her employer had accused her of stealing an earring. She was ultimately convicted of that crime and sentenced to imprisonment. Queenie believes her employer wanted to avoid paying her maternity leave. Prison authorities brought her to a hospital to deliver her baby, who was born on January 1, 2015, and since she had served out her sentence she was released from custody a few days later. With nowhere to go, Queenie ended up at the Kowloon Union church, where a minister saw her crying. She was referred to Bethune House for shelter and aid. Hong Kong, January 7, 2015.
