If you are being stalked, one option that you might consider is filing a Personal Protection Order (PPO). Turning Point has advocates that are available to assist survivors of stalking with the necessary forms and e-filing, as well as providing resources and discuss safety.

While stalking looks different in every situation, it can be helpful to have an understanding of what tactics may be used. If someone tells you that they are being stalked, believe them and consider sharing Turning Point's 24-Hout Hotline number.
