January is stalking month

January is National Stalking Awareness Month (NSAM).

No one should live feeling followed — yet many survivors do.

Stalking is a sinister tactic abusers use to keep someone in near-constant fear and unease. It often comes from a current, former, or even potential partner; stranger stalkers exist but are statistically less common.
