Serving Culpeper, Fauquier, Madison, Orange, and Rappahannock Counties
January is National Stalking Awareness MonthKNOW IT. NAME IT. STOP IT.
Trust your instincts. Victims of stalking often feel pressured by friends or family to downplay the stalker’s behavior, but stalking poses a real threat of harm. Your safety is paramount. Call the police if you feel you are in any immediate danger. Explain why the stalker’s actions are causing you fear. Keep a record or log of each contact with the stalker. You can use this log as an example. Be sure to also document any police reports. Save evidence when possible. Stalkers often use technology to contact their victims. Save all emails, text messages, photos, and postings on social networking sites as evidence of the stalking behavior. You may also want to consider how to use your technology and your devices in a safer manner. For more information, please visit the National Network to End Domestic Violence Safety Net Project’s Tech Safety Site. Get connected with a local victim service provider who can assist you in exploring your options as well as discuss safety planning. |
