1 in 4 women experiencing homelessness cites domestic violence as a direct cause. That’s why the Domestic Violence & Homeless Services Coalition (DVHSC) exists: because no one should have to choose between stable housing and a life free from violence.

Last night, DVHSC Senior Manager Cristina Cortes joined CBS LA’s Gio Insignares and Survivor Justice Center Executive Director Carmen McDonald to remind us that it takes all of us to create a community where survivors feel safe asking for help.
