Her Story
A Voice Forged by Overcoming
Charmaine Dollar is a survivor of human trafficking whose journey from exploitation to purpose forms the foundation of her life's work. She is the author of From Prostitution To Promise, a memoir that chronicles her path from trauma to healing — and the founder of Hope Haven Coalition, a nonprofit organization dedicated to the prevention, education, and support of trafficking survivors.
That lived experience, paired with years of hands-on advocacy, public speaking, and community outreach, gives Charmaine a rare and credible voice in rooms where policy meets people — boardrooms, classrooms, sanctuaries, and government chambers alike.
Today, through Charmaine Dollar LLC, she channels that expertise into a full-spectrum leadership and education company: speaking, published works, structured training programs, and purpose-driven merchandise, all built to serve organizations committed to real, measurable transformation.
