It’s not just housing, it’s a sense of identity.
Survivor at a Domestic Violence Housing First Program
Domestic violence is a leading cause of homelessness for women and children.
The Domestic Violence Housing First (DVHF) approach focuses on getting survivors of domestic violence into stable housing as quickly as possible, and then providing the necessary support as they rebuild their lives.
Key components of Domestic Violence Housing First include survivor-driven, trauma-informed, mobile advocacy, community engagement, and flexible financial assistance.
