A self-defense event in Sanford, Florida, organized by the United States Concealed Carry Association, provided women with practical safety techniques and situational awareness strategies. The training session, led by self-defense instructor Beth Alcazar, focused on personal safety habits, awareness in everyday settings, and steps women can take to respond during threatening situations. The event included hands-on demonstrations and discussions on recognizing risk, reacting under stress, and understanding options for self-protection. Alcazar also addressed questions from attendees regarding preparedness, responsible firearm ownership, and personal safety planning. This event is part of a broader effort by the organization to expand in-person chapter events across the country, offering more opportunities for live instruction and discussion.
