Marjorie’s Experience

Marjorie Saylor is a survivor of child sexual abuse and teen rape that pushed her into the arms of sexual exploitation in the adult industry and a terrifying relationship with domestic violence.  After a brief encounter with attempted suicide in 2012 she decided to take her life back one day at a time and after the birth of her daughter she grew a new strength out of the need to protect her which resulted in her escape in July of 2013. Since then she has been active in the local and faith based communities helping them to understand the cause of  child sexual trauma and why our youth are so a risk of human trafficking as she shares her story and hope. She mentors young girls and families that are going through the things she is only so familiar with. She is also a student at Palomar College with a major in Psychology minoring in Criminal Justice. She has been called on by her professors to give presentations on human trafficking, domestic violence, and the dangers of pornography because of her own experience. She is taking every opportunity to share her experiences and why she ended up there to help shed light on what is such a major problem within the US. In March 2014 She joined Treasures Ministry in LA and completed their training program in outreach to women in the adult industry. In August of 2014 Marjorie then joined up with Carissa Phelps and became an affiliate of Runaway Girl Inc. as a Subject Matter Expert and began her training to be able to train law enforcement and the community in response and protocol to child victims of CSEC.
