Welcome to STOPLifting
STOPLifting helps you examine your beliefs and attitudes about shoplifting and gives you the tools to stop. The course is personal and helps you think about the reason you're here, your decision to shoplift, whether it was impulsive or planned, and how you feel now about your actions.
Shoplifting is not a victimless crime. People get hurt, including the store owners, their employees, your family, and the community you live in. Last but not least, shoplifting hurts the perpetrator. Statistics show the act of shoplifting can and often does become addictive. This does not excuse the crime. However, addictive-compulsive shoplifters often repeat their shoplifting pattern and carry around a sense of guilt and shame.
The good news is...you don’t have to continue down this path. Resources are available in this course to help you understand your motives and how to avoid some personal triggers that lead to shoplifting.
STOPLIfting.com is made up of 7 lessons and can be completed in 3 to 4 hours from any computer or smart phone with internet access. You can login 24/7 and complete the course at your own pace. We designed the course for students with different reading and learning skills. The lesson pages and topics are short, interactive, and include audio narration.
Each lesson page is timed based on the audio segment. An individual can’t simply click NEXT to advance. Each page includes an interaction that must be successfully completed before advancing to the next page.
The course also includes VALIDATION measures to ensure that you’re doing the course work. You may receive random pop-up questions in the course, and you have 1 to 2 minutes to correctly answer the validation question or you will be locked out of the program. If you’re locked out you will need to call our office to verify that you are the enrolled student doing the course work.
After you've completed all lessons and the post-test, you'll receive a Certificate of Completion by email. Go to the link in the email and print your certificate for your record.
