Before she was an attorney, author and advocate, Carissa
Phelps was a survivor of domestic minor sex trafficking. Abandoned at age 12,
she ended up in group homes before running away and becoming homeless. With no
one to turn to, she was taken to "Motel Drive," a street in Fresno
known for prostitution. In her new memoir, Runaway Girl: Escaping Life on the
Streets One Helping Hand at a Time, Phelps shares her extraordinary story of
survival and transformation. Amazingly, Phelps has turned her life around and
graduated in 2007 from UCLA with a law degree and an MBA. Her personal
accomplishments, as well as her faith, have given her the courage to expose and
respond to domestic minor sex trafficking in the US. Together with partners
around the world, she is part of a global network to connect resources and
assist local and international survivors in rebuilding their lives. Phelps
mentors young survivors who have experienced sexual exploitation, and is
building a searchable database to connect survivors and their mentors to
resources around the world. Her organization NAIOC, the National Alliance to
Improve Outcomes for CSEC (Commercially Sexually Exploited Children), works
with social workers
and police officers on the local level, training them to effectively
communicate with minor sex trafficking victims.
Carissa has been using her talents and to advocate create awareness and change laws around sexually exploited children. She has been guest on radio and television shows including “KTLA”, ” KALW” and AOL”, and “The Huffington Post”. Most notably Carissa used her experience and legal knowledge to write arguments in favor of Proposition 35 for State of California official voters guide. She has also lent her skills to law enforcement agencies assisting on several cases.
Char has traveled all over the world giving lectures on how individuals can recognize and develop their own intuitive talents to achieve happiness, balance and success. Her primetime show in the Netherlands is currently in its eighth season and consistently wins its time period.
