Monday to Friday's "Stop Child Abuse Now" (SCAN) feature trauma informed HOSTs and Co-hosts and respected child abuse prevention, intervention and recovery advocates. They're all volunteers members of the National Association of Adult Survivors of Child Abuse (NAASCA), a 501(c)3. Founded in 2009, NAASCA.org was originally a grassroots effort. It was launched based on our founder Bill Murray's personal life experienced. Bill wrote, "Very few adults escape years of severe childhood sexual abuse, pre-pubescent X-rated photography, sex trafficking, and a two week long kidnapping." He continued. "But I have, and for some 35 years I've been in recovery from its devastating effects." After years of operating as a grassroots effort, NAASCA became a public charity in 2015 .. a 501(c)3 .. but we receive no grants or outside support, and belong to no other organization. There are no dues or fees. Our MISSION is entirely self-sustaining through the volunteer contributions of our members. The single purpose is to address issues related to childhood abuse and trauma including sexual assault, violent or physical abuse, emotional traumas and neglect from two specific perspectives: 1) educating the public, and 2) offering hope for healing and services to adult survivors. There are now nearly 3000 BlogTalkRadio shows, podcasts in the ever-growing library. Join us five-nights-a-week (Mon to Fri), at 8pm EST (so 7pm CEN, 6pm MTN, 5pm PAC) for solution-oriented discussions about the many issues of child abuse and trauma. The shows always include panel discussions and call-in participation.

Upcoming Broadcasts

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 came from the same streets he still walks, through now his head is held higher. His methodology is frequently shared and written about in newspapers and magazines such as the Washington Examiner, VCRreporter, Monticito 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 others 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 everyday 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 that 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 a part of our live panel.
