January is National Stalking Awareness Month. Stalking is not always what people think it may be. It is a form of domestic violence and the Circle of Hope wants to educate the community to recognize what stalking is and how to respond to it.
They’re offering a free Lunch-n-Learn on Thursday, Jan. 25, from 11 a.m. until 12:30 p.m. in the Habersham EMC Community Room at 6135 Hwy 115, Clarkesville.
Registration for the Lunch-n-Learn is open through noon on Wednesday, Jan. 24.
Linda Shadburn of The Circle of Hope encourages all those who work as Community Service Providers to attend.
“Stalking is becoming so prevalent in our community. This is an opportunity to learn how to recognize and respond to help people in situations they may find themselves,” says Shadburn.
The luncheon is limited to 100 people, so it is important to register by the deadline.
