personal alarms, whistles....
She may also want to consider a personal alarm. The loud shrill sound may disorinent a attacker or group of attackers long enough to get away.
I know many people ignore car alarms or warning bells but a loud shrieking sound may give the citizen time to flee or prepare a defense weapon.
I purchased a small bright orange whistle with a high db level to use on security details. I put it in my first aid case/duty belt & considered it useful for signals or to alert others in an emergency.
I used it a few times but not in any high risk incidents, mostly crowd control-traffic enforcement.
