The Economic Impacts of Domestic Violence: A Blueprint for Action

The hearings involved more than 125 people, with 40% of these identifying as survivors of domestic violence. Advocates will find this report of use for its description of the process followed in terms of the hearings, as well as for the findings and recommendations across economic-related topics such as employment and workplace, emergency cash, finances and credit, child care, education and training and welfare. A specific chapter addresses the housing needs of survivors and offers recommended actions for housing providers, public housing authorities and public and private funders.
