As January is Stalking Awareness Month, the team at New Horizons wanted to share important information about stalking, alert you to the signs of stalking, and remind you that we are here to help if you think that you or someone you care about is being stalked.
Stalking is a dangerous and illegal behavior that does not discriminate – men and women of diverse racial and ethnic backgrounds can all fall prey to a stalker. Although women are more often the victims of stalking, 1 in 4 stalking victims are male. It is important to know that in 3 out of 4 cases of stalking, the victim knows their stalker; the majority of victims know their stalker on an intimate level. The vast majority of individuals who are later killed by an intimate partner were stalked by that partner in the year prior to their death.
For all of these reasons, it is essential for your personal safety that you aware of the signs that you are being stalked. Please read below to become aware of the signs, and please reach out to the team at New Horizons if you find that any of the following have happened to you on two or more occasions.
Remember, we are here if you need us. We wish you a happy, healthy and safe 2018!
