I think this is a wonderful thing. As a mother of teen girls, and a rape survivor, I think anything we can do to help our girls be safe and to empower them is wonderful.

What you are doing is amazing. I plan to have a "Just Yell Fire" birthday party for my 18th birthday. I think all my friends need to know your techniques before we head off to college. Thank you!
I am watching just yell fire right now and I am going to tell my counselor at school about it and chances are he will show this to are entire school and thanks for doing this!
Thank you and the girls for making such an awsome movie. It is important that girls protect themselves. Thanks again.
I have been telling all of my daughter's mothers about the DVD and download. Thanks for getting the word out. Our young women need to know what to do in the real world and we as parents need to be reminded as well. I am so proud of the young women who were moved to make this DVD. It may very well save more lives than we will ever know.
My faith in humanity is restored once again. Stay pro-active girls.
I have six young nieces (and one nephew) and have tried to teach them how to prevent an abduction or unwanted touching. I taught them to yell 'fire' as loudly as possible, thinking it would get more attention than 'help'. I am happy to see that I wsa doing it right. I applaud what you and this team have accomplished and I plan to promote the DVD to everyone I know. Thank you for your dedication to this project.
I will be sharing this with my daughter and my nieces, as I have 9 - and they all could definately use this information. This world is full of predators looking to take advantage of our young innocent girls, I know, because I used to be one myself. If I would have had the knowledge ahead of time - things might have turned out very different for me. My hope is, that your DVD will help my girls to be aware of their strengths, and their surroundings, and be in control of their situation, should something happen to them - God forbid.
Thank you for making this important DVD, and supplying it to the public.
Good luck on your CNN Heroes nomination!!!! You deserve it.
As a former Police Officer and having approximately twelve years in security and law enforcement; I applaud your organizations efforts to teach girls and young women how to defend themselves against predators.
Thank you for such a brilliant website and film. I will make the film required viewing for my teenage daughters!
Besides being the mother of four daughters and one son, I am a retired Crime Scene Investigator. I'm very aware of the crimes and devastation of sexual assault cases, kidnappings and murder. My 13 year old son is a 3rd degree black belt in taekwondo, a black belt in Ki Gum Do (Korean sword), and a black belt in Hwa Rang Do. My 12 year old twin daughters are 2nd degree black belts as well. However, I still fear that they would "panic" if confronted with an abduction situation. I found this video to be a fantastic tool to reinforce all they have been taught. Congratulations! Keep up the great work. If this saves just one person's life, it's worth it's weight in gold. You should be very proud of yourselves!
