Address confidentiality program
地址保密計劃
The Address Confidentiality Program assists crime victims (specifically victims of domestic violence, sexual assault and stalking) who have relocated to avoid further abuse. It helps participants keep their home, work and/or school address secret by providing a substitute mailing address. It also allows clients to register to vote or apply for a marriage license without revealing their actual address.
地址保密計劃協助罪案受害者(特別是家庭暴力，性侵犯及被跟蹤的受害者)避免在搬遷後仍受滋擾。此計劃為參與者提供一替代地址，以幫助他們能將其家庭、工作及/或學校地址保密。此計劃亦容許成員在無需揭露其真實地址的情況下登記投票，或申請結婚證。
To participate or learn more about the Address Confidentiality Program, please visit http://www.secstate.wa.gov/acp/ or call (800) 822-1065 (in Washington only).
