More than 38,000 criminal offenses are reported on college campuses each year according to the U.S. Department of Education.

The Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network (RAINN) adds that “sexual violence on campus is pervasive,” with women in the 18 to 24-year range most at risk for this type of crime.

Fortunately, there are many products available to help increase dorm room safety.

Among them are window and door locks, stun guns, bulletproof backpacks, and a variety of self-defense keychains.

Whether you’re attending college yourself and want to be safe or looking out for a loved one, college-based self-defense products are worth the investment…not just for safety, but also for peace of mind.
