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

“When I watched Janine’s TedTalk, I was compelled to call her immediately to discuss booking her for our student-athletes. Her story is gripping. Her presentation provides many opportunities for students and staff to learn the often insidious nature of unhealthy relationships as well as ways to intervene with friends and family who may be in an unhealthy relationship. I highly recommend Janine for education in this area.”

Even a month after she spoke at our event, her words still resonate in my head.  Janine’s message is powerful and impactful and opens one’s eyes to the battle victims of domestic violence face every day against their abuser.

“Janine was the keynote speaker for our inaugural luncheon celebrating survivors of domestic abuse and their journeys forward. She gave a moving, captivating, and emotional address to our 330 guests. Because of her storytelling and talents, Janine helped AVDA raise over $300,000. We are grateful for her and would recommend hiring her at your next fundraising event.”

Janine Latus was an incredible speaker for us in 2017.  Of course sharing her sister’s tragic story was absolutely heart-wrenching, but what I found especially compelling was her own personal story of abuse which was less about the physical but more verbal abuse in her previous relationships. I can’t help but think this was eye-opening for some our attendees that may not have realized they could potentially be in the same situation.  She was also willing to do whatever she could to support… Read more
