COMMENTS
from April Contoper, a finding-member who attended the class on August 13, 2012:
"I just completed it today, and it far exceeded my expectations. There really aren't words to describe the impression it left on me. I can only say I think EVERY woman should attend. It could save your life one day & you'll leave feeling empowered & prepared. This is very hands on, but you don't have to do anything you're not comfortable with. On the last day, you'll play out realistic scenarios. You'll put all those skills you just learned to work."
PLEASE NOTE
You can register and attend this class on your own. I am posting this class for your benefit only but won't be attending since I have already taken this wonderful class last year.
