Refuse To Be A Victim

Description

We never think a crime will happen to us, until it actually does.  While sometimes unfortunate things do happen unexpectedly, it is important to be equipped with the knowledge and skills needed for personal safety and crime prevention.  Having a personal safety strategy in place and knowing the techniques and tactics you can use to avoid becoming a potential victim can help you live smarter and be safer.

One of the most important steps toward ensuring your own safety is having a personal safety strategy in place before you need it.

NRA’s Refuse To Be A Victim® program teaches the tips and techniques you need to be alerted to dangerous situations and to avoid criminal confrontation.

“Crimes of Opportunity” are crimes committed without planning or forethought.  When criminals realize they have a chance to commit a crime, they seize the opportunity.

Don’t be an easy target.

We can all pinpoint times where we’ve made ourselves an easy target – whether it was keeping our heads buried in our phones, parking in a dimly lit area at night, or leaving our houses or cars unlocked.  But there are many more, less obvious situations that make us vulnerable as well.

Learn how to think ahead to avoid potentially dangerous people and places; be more situationally aware; and not be a soft target!

Remember: Those who are habitually prepared to protect themselves are less likely to ever have to!

Students will be educated on the following:

• How to discourage dangerous threats

• Ways to identify and avoid potentially dangerous situations

• Protection at a safe distance

• Personal safety skills for smart living
