Blog#14 Reducing risk of assault

What can a woman do to reduce her risk of assault?

A woman can do many things to reduce her risk of assault. The first thing is to be aware of your surroundings, as most of my classmates have already said, because this way you can avoid getting into dangerous situations. Next, when you go out have your keys ready when you get to your car and always check your backseat. Third, get some mace, pepper spray, gun, or bats to protect yourself and your belongings. Lastly, take a self defense class to give yourself a boost of confidence and some training on what to do when and if you are put in a dangerous situation. As long as we as women protect ourselves and pay attention we can stop a lot of the abductions and kidnappings if we just pay more attention.
