The Department of Justice will receive mail at the alternative address and safely deliver it to the victim. The alternative address provided to applicants will be the address of a state or local government agency.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSince the COVID-19 pandemic, domestic violence hotline calls have increased by about 400%,\u201d said an official from Rohnock Valley Family Services. \u201cThe Address Confidentiality Program helps victims feel safe and at ease and helps them focus on healing rather than living in fear.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For more information about the program, please apply by emailing the address below.<\/p>\n<p>Email: <a href=\"mailto:domestic.violence@oag.state.va.us\">domestic.violence@oag.state.va.us<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Victims of domestic violence and stalking can now request to have their addresses removed from public records in Virginia.
