WORC
S.O.S.
“Victims of domestic violence struggle to find permanent housing after fleeing abusive relationships. Many have left in the middle of the night with nothing but the clothes on their backs, and now must entirely rebuild their lives. As long-term housing options become scarcer, victims are staying longer in emergency domestic violence shelters. As a result, shelters are frequently full and must turn families away.” Quoted from National Network to End Domestic Violence
Supporting Our Survivors addresses the housing instability faced by individuals impacted by domestic violence and human trafficking who must leave their homes to ensure their safety and security. When grant funding is available, WORC provides financial assistance for housing relocation and, in some cases, support for rental arrears.
