Carol & Duane Fredrickson are the founders of Violence Free, a violence prevention consulting and speaking firm based in Phoenix, Arizona.

Together and individually, they consult onsite with clients across North America and deliver interactive seminars based on their 45+ years of combined law enforcement experience.

Clients rely on their skills, knowledge and expertise to prevent 6-7 figure lawsuits, and more importantly to avert violent workplace disasters. They work with clients in preventing and responding to high-risk situations of all types and sizes.

She was awarded the Police Chief's Commendation for saving the life of a police officer. Carol is a recognized authority on personal safety, violence prevention, and crisis management.

Since 1993 over 100,000 people have benefited from Carol's powerful message of personal strength and self reliance. She keeps audiences on the edge of their seats with stranger-than-fiction case studies and "worst case scenarios" pulled from hundreds of real-life violent workplace situations - and preventing hundreds more through her work "in the trenches" onsite with corporate clients, partnering with law firms, and working closely with law enforcement agencies nationwide.
