Stalking Among Victims with Disabilities
Stalking is a prevalent, dangerous, and often misunderstood crime. For victims with disabilities, stalking can be even more complex, with additional barriers to seeking help, increased vulnerability, and unique challenges in safety planning.
In this webinar we will offer foundational information on the basics of guardianship of adults with intellectual disabilities. This will include types of guardianship, who guardians are, and the timing and scope of guardianship for adults. We will then explore together a few scenarios based on real situations and play “what would you do?”
Attendees will learn to identify stalking behaviors and dynamics, recognize the intersection of stalking with other crimes, and apply strategies for working with survivors with disabilities who have experienced stalking. Join this informative webinar, presented by Natalie Ivey, the Training and Criminal Justice Specialist for the Stalking, Prevention, Awareness, and Resource Center (SPARC), an Aequitas initiative..
