How can someone who’s survived domestic violence keep their current address private?
Address Confidentiality Programs (ACP) and Confidential Voter Listings are programs administered by the state that enable survivors of domestic violence (and sometimes victims of sexual assault and/or stalking) to vote without fear of being found by their abusers by providing a substitute address for all public records. Confidential Voter Listings only provide confidentiality on election-related public records.
The National Association of Secretaries of State provides a list of links to state laws and applications for ACPs and similar resources.
The National Network to End Domestic Violence provides a list of currently available programs. For more information on ACPs and Confidential Voter Listings in your state contact your local elections officials.
