January is National Stalking Awareness Month and in this week’s episode Deborah Clubb, Executive Director of the Memphis Area Women’s Council discusses the effects stalking has on victims. We discuss types of stalking, current laws, stalking, and employer training for domestic violence. Stalking, rape, intimate partner violence affects all genders. The 18-24-year-old age group experiences more stalking occurrences, usually on college campuses, than any other age group. Social media plays a very specific role in stalking.
