Who can I contact to help me develop a safety plan?
If you believe that you are in danger, we strongly urge you to call your local police department’s emergency number (911).
If your local police department employs a victim advocate, they may be able to help you develop a safety plan. You may also contact a local victim service provider. If you need help locating a victim service provider in your area, contact the VictimConnect helpline by phone or text at 855-484-2846 or online chat for a referral in your area.
The Stalking Prevention, Awareness, and Resource Center also provides information and resources on developing a safety plan on the What to Do if You Are Being Stalked section of their site.
