Abstract

Take Back the Night Foundation is a nonprofit organization that helps to create safe communities and respectful relationships to end sexual violence and domestic abuse. The foundation was created in 2001 under the leadership of Katie Koestner, an activist against sexual assault who, in 1990, spoke publicly after being allegedly raped on the College of William and Mary campus in Virginia. The Take Back the Night Foundation has chapters located on college and university campuses, as well as on military bases.
