Rape Aggression Defense System

RAD is not a martial art; it is a program of realistic self-defense tactics and techniques for women offered by the Pitt Police.

"To develop and enhance the options of self defense, so they may become considerations to the woman who is attacked." The RAD system allows women to:

1. Avoid

2. Escape

3. Survive assaults if they do occur.
