Know More, Do More: Recognizing and Responding to 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. This webinar explored the dynamics of stalking, common tactics used by perpetrators, the intersection of stalking with domestic and sexual violence, as well as tools to plan for survivor safety and hold offenders accountable. This presentation focused on specific considerations for working with survivors of stalking who have disabilities.
Attendees learned 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. Watch 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.
