Through our live seminars, books, DVDs (coming soon) and this educational website, we strive to teach young women how to be their own best protectors. GFB was born in 2001 in response to the murder of a gorgeous, athletic and loved college student named Shannon McNamara (http://www.shannonmcnamara.com). Shannon's friend and Alpha Phi sorority sister, Erin Weed (http://www.erinweed.com), started Girls Fight Back in 2001 as a means to make empowering safety education accessible, especially to young women in their teens and twenties. It is our mission to educate women across the globe about personal safety and self-defense. Because fighting like a girl is actually a very good thing! While you're here, you can do the following: 1. Learn to defend yourself online This website is packed with safety information and much more content is currently under development. Become a GFB member to access all the cool perks!
