Program/Service Notes:
The Address Confidentiality Program (ACP) was established by Chapter 409 of the Acts of 2000. Survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, and stalking often attempt to escape from actual or threatened violence by establishing new addresses. Too often the perpetrator of violence locates the new address. ACP provides a means by which victims may use a confidential address in order to stay safe from actual or threatened violence.
Essentially, ACP will serve as a confidential mail forwarding system for victims of domestic violence, sexual assault, or stalking who have been accepted into the program. The Secretary of the Commonwealth assigns a substitute address to the program participant to be used as the participant's legal mailing address. ACP staff retrieve the program participant's mail and forward it to the participant's actual physical location.
In order to apply to become a program participant, an applicant must complete the ACP application with an application assistant certified by the Secretary of the Commonwealth. Program participants must have recently relocated to a new address that is unknown to the perpetrator. The application is submitted by the application assistant to the Secretary for certification. ACP will notify the applicant whether they have been certified as a program participant.
