New York Capital District Anti-Stalking Task Force

What To Do If You Are Being Stalked



If you are being stalked, get help. Call your local law enforcement agency, crime victim assistance program, domestic violence program, or District Attorney's office to discuss your safety needs, risks and options.

There are a number of things you can do, but none of them come with guarantees. Each stalking case and each stalker are different. The local agencies provided here can assist you in developing a personalized plan that can increase your safety and hopefully stop the stalking.

To Keep Yourself Safe

To Prosecute the Stalker

Remember, stalking is a criminal act. It doesn't matter what your past relationship with this person was, or was not. Unwanted pursuit that causes you fear is a crime, plain and simple.
