However, criminal and civil state laws can unintentionally prevent domestic violence shelters from accepting teens for residential services. Special laws that authorize runaway and homeless youth shelters do not typically encompass domestic violence shelters. And existing domestic violence shelters are not particularly set up to house teenagers; shelter rules and policies tend to assume that teens are in shelter along with a parent. Shelter through the child welfare system is even out of reach when the dating violence is not considered child abuse under state law. This document provides guidance to advocates on addressing the current gap in services for teens needing emergency shelter to escape dating abuse.</p> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-associated-links field--type-link field--label-above"> <div class="field__label">Associated Links</div> <div class="field__items"> <div class="field__item"><a href="http://www.breakthecycle.org/sites/default/files/Mind%20the%20Gap-%20Providing%20Shelter%20for%20Minor%20Dating%20Abuse%20Survivors.pdf" target="_blank">Mind the Gap: Providing Shelter to Minor Dating Abuse Survivors</a></div> </div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-material-categories field--type-entity-reference field--label-above"> <div class="field__label">Material Categories</div> <div class="field__items"> <div class="field__item"><a href="/materials/counseling-crisis-intervention" hreflang="und">Counseling &amp; Crisis Intervention</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="/materials/residential-shelter-services" hreflang="und">Residential / Shelter Services</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="/materials/domestic-violence" hreflang="und">Domestic Violence</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="/materials/healthy-relationships" hreflang="und">Healthy Relationships</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="/materials/housing-homelessness" hreflang="und">Housing &amp; Homelessness</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="/materials/young-people" hreflang="und">Young People</a></div> </div> </div> Wed, 29 Jun 2016 17:40:53 +0000 Anonymous 7330 at https://vawnet.org
