No one should have to choose between homelessness and staying in a violent home. Without housing, many people are forced to remain in abusive relationships, accept inadequate or unsafe housing, or  become homeless. People who are out of the workforce and rely on their abusive partners financially, are especially at risk for unstable housing after leaving an abusive relationship.
