What Is Stalking?
It is when someone is watching, monitoring or following you!
It can take place between work and home or going to appointments. Sometimes the person stalking you will organise another person to watch or follow you on their behalf. It is another way that an abuser can control you and keep you feeling afraid of them. The truth is it is illegal for someone to do this to you and is a violation of your rights. Stalking can lead to other violent crimes and even death so report it as soon as it starts.
