About half of stalking cases are related to intimate partner violence \u2013 which means that half are not. Even when the stalking is not related to domestic violence, the response to stalking is typically housed under domestic violence or rape crisis services. Do you serve all victims of stalking \u2013 even when offenders are friends, acquaintances, family members, or strangers? This webinar explores the prevalence and dynamics of non-intimate partner stalkers, including strategies to assess risk and plan for victim safety.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

Listen<\/a> or Watch<\/a> Debbie Riddle\u2019s youngest sister, Peggy Klinke, was brutally murdered by a stalker on January 18, 2003.

Tools to plan for victim safety and hold offenders accountable are discussed.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n Over half of stalking offenders are current or former intimate partners. On average, intimate partner stalkers pose the greatest risks to their victims. In honor of Domestic Violence Awareness Month (DVAM), this webinar highlights the significant connections between stalking and intimate partner violence.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n Stalking, like domestic and sexual violence, requires a coordinated response that joins multidisciplinary community partners to meet the needs of victims. While many communities have an established response to domestic and sexual violence, the response to stalking has not been elevated to the same level. Effective coordinated responses to stalking go beyond the criminal justice system to focus on the creation of a wide system of support for victims. This webinar will focus on building a coordinated response to stalking, both within the legal system and beyond, and will promote the education and awareness of stalking as a component of this response.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n Stalking is a serious, prevalent, and dangerous crime that impacts every community in the United States. While awareness and public discussion of intimate partner violence and sexual assault have increased in recent years, stalking remains frequently misunderstood and rarely discussed \u2013 on campuses, within the fields of domestic and sexual violence, and among the broader general public. This webinar highlights the newly updated “Know It, Name It, Stop It” scripted public awareness program from SPARC and provides tools and strategies to incorporate stalking education into existing programming.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n While the Covid-19 pandemic can limit survivor options and exacerbate victims’ isolation, stalkers may exploit health concerns and social distancing to continue or even escalate their stalking behaviors. This webinar will highlight Covid-19’s potential impacts on stalking victims and provide strategies for service providers to enhance support and safety.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n Stalking is a traumatizing and dangerous crime that frequently co-occurs with physical violence \u2013 including homicide.
