In this episode of Forgotten Voices, you’ll meet Jan Langbein, the CEO of Genesis Women’s Shelter in Dallas Texas. She's a national leader in efforts to end violence against women and children. Since being appointed by the President of the United States to serve as Senior Policy Advisor on Violence Against Women, she has become a national spokesperson against domestic violence.

I spoke with her recently on the location of the national event she helped create: the Conference on Crimes Against Women.
