Stalking Awareness Month

Stalking Awareness Month is observed every January to raise public awareness about stalking and its impact on victims. It aims to educate individuals about the nature of stalking behaviors, which can include repeated, unwanted contact or surveillance, often causing fear and emotional distress. The month promotes resources for victims, encourages reporting stalking incidents, and emphasizes the importance of support systems. By highlighting these issues, societies can foster a more informed understanding of stalking, ultimately aiming to reduce its prevalence and assist those affected in seeking help and protection.
