"Janine Latus is the most compelling speaker on sexual assault and relationship abuse I've ever heard."

I have seldom heard the undergraduate students on our campus quieter than when Janine Latus was speaking to them. At the end of my class, students filed out, shaking her hand and offering their thanks. Over the course of the three days she spent on our campus, she spoke in five classes, at a campus-wide program, and with clients at our local women’s shelter. On campus, I frequently saw students talking with her privately, sometimes with tears in their eyes. Janine helps victims of abuse unders… Read more

Thank you so much for speaking today. I had watched your talk online, but seeing you speak in person was even better. I know you must hear this everywhere, but you truly are inspiring. Thank you for speaking on behalf of all the victims of violence who do not have your gift. You are saving lives because of your calling and your love for your sister, which shows so clearly in your talk.

Thank you for sharing your story last night at the YWCA’s Women of Excellence. I have lost several friends to domestic violence. I used to be one of those people who just didn’t get why a woman stayed until I got older and saw the way abusers manipulate their victims. My deepest condolences to you for your sister but she still lives on through you and your story. I wholeheartedly believe everyone can do something to save even just one person. Thank you again.

Janine Latus is an amazing speaker, particularly when it comes to the topics relating to intimate partner violence. Her knowledge and expertise on the subject were evident during her talk at our event in 2023. Not only that, but she also played a crucial role in making the event a resounding success as a fundraiser. If you’re looking for a speaker who can share insights into intimate partner violence and inspire you to make a difference, Janine Latus is an excellent choice.

Janine was the keynote speaker for our annual Tribute to Women of Achievement event, and she was heart stopping.  You could have heard a pin drop during her presentation as she had us all on the edge of our seats.  Although her story is chilling, it is also very real and a powerful reminder that domestic violence lives among so many of us.  Janine is an amazing speaker and one our audience won’t soon forget.
