They feel terrorized : Family Shelter brings awareness to realities of stalking
The Daily Ardmoreite
Stalking can wear on victims physical and mental health to the point where they can no longer live their lives normally. But the Family Shelter of Southern Oklahoma wants victims to know they are not alone and there is help available.
January 2021 marks the seventh annual Stalking Awareness Month, a national call to recognize and respond to the crime of stalking. Stalking is defined as a “pattern of behavior directed at a specific person that would cause a reasonable person to feel fear,” and is something advocates at the Family Shelter come across on a regular basis.
