VICTIM SERVICES

Protect Victims
From The Threat.

Personal information left online can help an abuser or stalker locate a victim, identify their family, and put them at risk all over again.

67% of victims who experienced both traditional and technology-facilitated stalking feared they would be killed or physically harmed.

THE PROBLEM

A Name Can Be Enough to Find Them Again.

People-finder sites expose a victim’s home address, phone number, relatives, and property information—even after they move, giving an abuser or stalker another path back to them.
