WHAT IS DADS FOR DEFENSE?
DADS FOR DEFENSE is a solution for the modern man and father. Despite different life journeys, we eventually realize we share a common role: to protect our families and communities. It has been this way since we had to sharpen sticks and seek shelter and warmth in caves. Men have always defended women and children from the threats that exist in this world.
In the 2020s, these threats are as severe as they’ve ever been. As dads, we owe it to ourselves and our loved ones to be protectors. We help you develop the skills and mindset to live up to this responsibility.
“ Your career or life path shouldn’t dictate whether or not you have the skills and knowledge to protect what’s yours “
