My story is about whatever I've been through.
What does it take to turn a life of hardship into one of advocacy and support? Lang Martinez knows firsthand. In this episode of 'Stop Child Abuse Now', Lang opens up about his incredible journey from homelessness and addiction to becoming a dedicated advocate for survivors of sexual abuse and chronic homelessness. Growing up in Ventura County, Lang experienced a tumultuous life marked by risky behavior, drug addiction, and imprisonment. But he didn't let these challenges define him.
Instead, he used them as stepping stones to build a career and a mission to help others. Lang's peer-to-peer approach has earned him a respected place among professionals in his field. His writings in various local publications and his role as an ambassador advocate highlight his commitment to making a difference. He celebrates four years of sobriety and continues to walk the streets he once called home, but now with his head held high.
Lang's story is a testament to the power of resilience and the importance of self-care in advocacy work. He discusses the harsh realities faced by survivors of sexual abuse and the ongoing fight to protect children from pedophiles. Through his speaking engagements and written works, Lang spreads a message of hope, accountability, and the necessity of accessing available resources for those affected by sexual abuse and rape.
