Destigmatizing Date Rape with Katie Koestner

Are our daughters safe on campus?  On this bonus episode, we speak to the Founder of Take Back the Night Foundation and date rape survivor, Katie Koestner.  

Katie is one of the nation’s most sought-after experts on student safety and healthy relationships and is the first woman in the United States to speak out nationally and publicly as the victim of campus “date” rape at age 18.  Katie has been featured on the cover of TIME Magazine, The Oprah Winfrey Show, NBC Nightly News, CNBC Talk Live, CNN, Larry King Live, Good Morning America, Later Today, MSNBC, Entertainment Tonight and other national television programs. 

Katie shares her very personal story of date rape as an 18 year old at William and Mary and how she found the strength to become a very visible advocate for change.  We discuss ways for our children to be safe on campus and what we can do to help.
