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

“I just wanted to quickly share that we had our planning committee wrap up meeting today and needless to say you were a HIT! So many attendees have commented that they were really inspired by your story and thought you were an amazing speaker. Seriously, thank you so much and if there is ever a chance to partner in the future, I would love to!

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.

Janine Latus is a powerful activist who brought her story and advocacy to the University of South Alabama with truth, courage, passion, and a strong voice to help give a phenomenal talk as part of V-Day 2019.  The audience responded deeply to her message, with many staying after the program to speak directly with Janine.  We are thankful for her work and her visit to USA.

“I want to thank you for your powerful story. Your story and words made me realize how much abuse I have escaped in past relationships. The (not so) little things that I believed was love and how I deserved to be loved was not real and I had always blamed myself. Your words helped me realize that it was not my fault which has lifted so much weight off my shoulders. I cannot truly express how much it means to hear your story. Thank you again.”

Thank you so much, Janine! We got so much fantastic feedback from last night. Our guests were truly moved by your remarks and wanted to hear more! Thanks to you we raised over $37,000 last night, well over our goal.
