Refuse To Be A Victim® seminar

The seminar includes classroom instruction on a variety of crime prevention strategies, from criminal psychology to automobile crimes to cyber crime. This is not a firearms instruction course and does not include instruction in physical combat or self-defense. It teaches the common weaknesses criminals take advantage of and a range of corrective measures that are practical, inexpensive and easy to follow.

Criminals prefer easy targets. By making yourself more difficult to prey upon, you lessen your risk of criminal attack. That means having a personal safety strategy in place before you need it. The program suits teenagers and up, men and women alike, and includes modules for parents, seniors and people with disabilities. Women-only seminars are available.
