STALKING AWARENESS WEBINAR SERIES 2014

Campus Stalking 

The Idaho Coalition Against Sexual & Domestic Violence engages voices in the prevention, intervention, and response to domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking.  In recognition of Stalking Awareness Month, January 2014, we invite you to join us for a series of webinars on Campus Stalking.

Emerging research shows that stalking amongst college students is increasingly prevalent, with individuals between the ages of 18-24 experiencing the highest rate of stalking victimization. Stalking is difficult to recognize and unlike other crimes, is not a single, easily identifiable crime, but rather a series of acts directed at a specific person that would cause that person fear. 

The recent passage of the Campus SaVE act also requires that institutions of higher learning provide individuals experiencing stalking with assistance in reporting to law enforcement, understanding the campus disciplinary process, and receiving resources and referrals to advocacy services.  Campus SaVE also mandates that colleges provide education regarding primary prevention, risk reduction, and bystander intervention for stalking behaviors.

We hope campus personnel and law enforcement, community advocates, and other allies join us for this two-part series on Campus Stalking.
