Katie Koestner was on the cover of TIME Magazine at age 18 as the first to speak out nationally and publicly as the victim of “date” rape. Katie is the subject of an HBO movie and has lectured at over 5000 schools and universities around the world. Ms. Koestner is the founder of Take Back The Night Foundation, an international organization working to end sexual violence, support survivors and raise awareness.
