Webinars
Archived webinar recordings from the Domestic Violence and Housing Technical Assistance Consortium address key issues related to meeting survivors’ needs at the intersections of domestic and sexual violence and housing/homelessness.
Homelessness and domestic/sexual violence do not impact all survivors equally. Survivors from marginalized communities face additional challenges weathering domestic/sexual violence and housing crises. This webinar will summarize findings from a community-based participatory research study conducted in collaboration with survivors from marginalized communities. Participants will learn more about the cycle of housing insecurity model, and survivors’ barriers in getting and keeping housing.
The National Alliance for Safe Housing (NASH) and Regional Housing Legal Services have created a webinar series for survivor advocates on what they should know about the federal Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) program. The LIHTC program is the largest federal program encouraging the creation of affordable rental housing for low-income households in the U.S., with approximately 100,000 new units developed annually and producing over 3 million total housing units, since the program’s inception. The LIHTC program is a critical source of affordable housing for tenants, including survivors. Yet, much about the LIHTC program is not commonly known among advocates working with survivors.
