RAD - Rape Aggression Defense

Rape is a very real aspect of our society, one in three women can expect to be sexually assaulted.

RAD is a comprehensive self-defense course designed for women which combines physical techniques and common sense crime prevention methods. Police Department employees have been trained and certified to be RAD instructors. RAD gives women the tools to defend themselves and builds the self-confidence a woman needs in order to survive an attack.

In a partnership with Women Studies, RAD is offered as an accredited class here at Wake Forest. It is a pass/fail course lasting a half of a semester. For more information on the accredited class, please contact by e-mail rad@wfu.edu.

For non-accredited classes (Yes, you can have just your group of friends in one class), THREE WEEKS notification is needed to set up such a class.
