A Safe Place held its annual summer fundraiser on July 11, 2024 at Great Harbor Yacht Club. This year’s event, An Evening With Katie Koestner, brought education via connection to a sold out room while raising awareness and funding for A Safe Place’s free and confidential services within the Nantucket community.
This year’s keynote speaker, Katie Koestner, was on the cover of Time Magazine at age eighteen as the first woman in history to speak out nationally and publicly as the victim of “date” rape.
Katie has been featured on 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. She is the subject of an HBO movie and has lectured at over 5000 schools and universities around the world.
Additionally, Katie is the founder of the Take Back The Night Foundation, an international organization working to end sexual violence, support survivors, and raise awareness.
