Melissa Hill Resigns From APAG Board

CHATSWORTH, Calif. — Veteran, retired adult performer Melissa Hill has resigned from her position as second vice president of the Adult Performers Actors Guild (APAG).

Hill announced her resignation in a letter delivered to the APAG board on Dec. 19. The resignation is effective immediately.

"It is my opinion that the actions of the guild officers and board members seem to be going in a direction that I no longer wish to stand by and be a witness to," Hill said in the letter. "My resignation is not due to the actions of one person, or one particular idea, but rather the group's mentality as a whole."

Hill became involved with the union organizing in Feb. 2016 and volunteered to take charge of the social media accounts in March, "which eventually led to my appointment as the first official officer of APAG in May 2016."

The office of second vice president was created in order not to interfere with the election of officers, which are selected via mail-in balloting.

"On June 6, 2016, myself, along with the elected officers, were all officially sworn in as officers of the very first federally recognized adult film union, in the U.S.,” Hill said. She will continue to advocate for performers' rights. 

"My main purpose was to launch a much needed support group for the adult industry,” Hill added. “I launched Adult Industry Support Group (AISG) in September 2016, with the assistance of Kelly Holland, as well as an internationally renowned organization that provides a variety of support and recovery options.

“They, without hesitation, were eager to provide the adult industry with a safe and secure location for those whose privacy and confidentiality is a major concern,” she concluded, “To their knowledge, there has not been a support group of its kind specifically created for the adult industry by a member of the adult industry. It's peer-led, with the assistance of clinical psychologist, Talia Witkowski. Information is available at a.i.s.g@icloud.com."

Hill talks about her depature on LATalkRadio here.
