Discussion List for campus-based and allied personnel working to end gender-based violence on campus.

["Bautti, Joann" <>]

Colleagues,

 

I’m passing along a short (3 minute) You Tube clip of author/speaker, Janine Latus, as well as some information about her.  We’ve had her at ODU and she’s phenomenal.  She’s also a great value if you live in Virginia, as she lives in Norfolk.  Please don’t hesitate to contact me if you have any questions about our experience bringing her to ODU.

Janine Latus is the author of the bestseller If I Am Missing or Dead: a sister's story of love, murder and liberation, and a dynamic speaker on intimate partner violence, sexual violence and the need for us to tell our truths, giving others permission to tell theirs. In 2002 Janine's sister was murdered by her live-in boyfriend, and only then did Janine come forward with her own story of life with angry and controlling men. Now she travels the country, inspiring people to see the abuse in their own lives and the lives of those close to them, starting conversations in hopes of saving others from the same silence and shame.

 

Sincerely,

 

Joann
