Program Summary

Persons attempting to escape from domestic violence, sexual assault or stalking situations frequently establish new addresses in order to prevent their assailants from finding them. The ACP will allow victims who move to a new location the opportunity to keep that address confidential.

The purpose of the New Hampshire Address Confidentiality Program (ACP) is to enable state and local agencies to respond to requests for public records without disclosing the location of a victim of domestic violence, sexual assault or stalking. The ACP will also enable interagency cooperation with the Attorney General in providing address confidentiality for domestic violence, stalking and sexual assault victims. Lastly, the ACP will enable state and local agencies to accept a program participant's use of an address designated by the Attorney General as a substitute address.
