National Stalking Awareness Month
National Stalking Awareness Month

Stalking is a course of conduct directed at a specific person that would cause a reasonable person to feel fear. Unlike other crimes that involve a single incident, stalking is a pattern of behavior. It is often made up of individual acts that could, by themselves, seem harmless or noncriminal, but when taken in the context of a stalking situation, could constitute criminal acts. Legal definitions of stalking differ depending on where you live; however stalking is a crime under the laws of all 50 states, the District of Columbia, the U.S. Territories, and the Federal government. Stalking is serious, often violent, and can escalate over time.

Stalking Prevention, Awareness & Resource Center (SPARC)   https://www.stalkingawareness.org/about-sparc/

 

Take some time to go to these sites.  They are full of important information on what "stalking" is, what you can do about it and resources you can access.  Whether you are a current victim or not, you should familiarize yourself with this information.  1 in 3 Women and 1 in 6 Men experience stalking at some time in their lifetimes.  You could be one of them.  Be prepared by arming yourself with this information.
