Lethality Risk Factors Animated Series: Stalking

Stalking inflicts severe emotional and psychological harm on victims, often causing heightened anxiety, fear, and a pervasive sense of insecurity. Stalking serves as a significant risk factor for intimate partner homicide, as it often indicates escalating violence and a heightened level of danger within the relationship. This animated video is a shortened version of the webinar from the DV RISC Lethality Risk Factors Series,  and highlights why stalking  is a lethality risk factor, how it’s identified in specific IPV risk assessments, and practical steps that can be taken once it is flagged.
