Description

Tracked, Trapped, and Silenced: Responding to Military-Connected Survivors of Stalking Series: Safety planning with military-connected survivors requires navigating complex systems, limited autonomy, and overlapping jurisdictions. In this session, we’ll examine how to assess risk and create realistic safety plans for survivors living on or off base. Participants will explore the unique barriers survivors face — from command gatekeeping and housing approvals to fear of retaliation or career sabotage — and develop practical strategies grounded in survivor autonomy. Case studies and tip sheets will help anchor learning.
This series is being presented by National Organization for Victim Advocacy (NOVA) and Stalking Prevention Awareness Resource Center (SPARC).
