Women In Film has launched a Sexual Harassment Help Line — an integrated program to
refer victims of harassment working in the entertainment industry to designated mental health counselors, law enforcement professionals, and civil and criminal lawyers and litigators.
Criminal
harassment, or «stalking», as it is commonly
referred to, consists
of any
of the following things, if done without lawful authority: repeatedly following the
victim or someone known to the
victim, repeatedly communicating with the
victim or someone known to the
victim (either directly or indirectly), watching or besetting a place where the
victim or someone known to the
victim lives, works, carries on business or happens to be, or employing threatening conduct towards the
victim or a member
of the
victim's family.
Join this webinar to learn about: types
of legal services available to address sexual
harassment in housing; the proper process
of identifying and
referring the crime; civil rights litigation on behalf
of victims; and opportunities for collaboration among the Federal Government and those providing direct legal services for the
victims.
