Assessing the cost-benefit of a victim-centered stalking prevention intervention: a case study of the multi-agency stalking intervention plan

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: Stalking is a pervasive problem with substantial repercussions for its victims. This article seeks to address this gap by particularly investigating the evaluation of a victim-centered stalking prevention intervention within a comprehensive multi-agency framework. This study used a mixed-methods approach, including collecting and analyzing qualitative and quantitative data, to evaluate the intervention’s impact comprehensively. The study’s findings indicate that using a victim-centered approach significantly reduced instances of stalking and enhanced the safety and overall welfare of the participants. The results emphasized the critical need for tailoring preventive strategies to meet the specific needs and experiences of stalking victims, therefore demonstrating the effectiveness of these individualized interventions. The positive outcomes of this case study endorse the integration of victim-centered principles into the broader framework of stalking prevention efforts, with substantial implications for policymakers, practitioners, and researchers in the field.
