The new book, a curriculum for middle and high school teachers, discusses teen issues concerning Internet safety, shakedowns, peer pressure, and harassment, along with step-by-step physical self-defense techniques to escape attackers, and ready-made lesson plans. It's important for kids of all ages to feel empowered and know that they can protect themselves. From understanding how to be more aware of your surroundings to abductions, "I need to be SAFE: I'm worth it!" and the C.L.A.S.S. Self-Defense curriculums, show children, parents, and teachers how NOT to be the next victim."
