Stop Child Abuse Now

Tonight's special guest is Lang Martinez from Ventura County, CA. Sexually abused and raped as a young person, Lang has struggled to heal from the trauma of alcohol and drug addiction ever since. Martinez has built a reputation for himself as a homeless advocate who comes from the same streets he still walks, though now his head is held higher. His methodology is frequently shared and written about in newspapers and magazines such as the Washington Examiner, VCRreporter, Montecito Journal, Fillmore Gazette, Vc Star, Citizens Journal, La Crescenta Valley Weekly, Keys To Recovery, and much more. His peer-to-peer approach has cemented his name among other homeless advocates all over the country. Although his entire adult life has been marred with risky behavior, drug addiction, imprisonment, and homelessness. He is learning every day and understanding that his past isn't the lock, but the key to life he has today, Lang has a career, a relationship with someone who loves him, and an unwavering passion to help others. Today, Lang shares his story of what it takes to recover from sexual abuse and addiction. He'd been left homeless and dead on the streets. But today he has surrounded himself with God's Angels who won't let him fall, and who believe Lang can survive. He came from Skid Row but is now spiritually seated at the front row of God's Love and Forgiveness. He is No Longer a candle blowing in the night searching for his destiny. Today he's found his salvation and finally lives in peace. ~~ Everyone is invited to engage in tonight's show. Please visit the NAASCA.org website or call 646-595-2118 to be part of our live panel.
