NRCDV Policy and Research Briefing: The Intersection of Substance Use and Safe Housing for Survivors
August 27 @ 3:00 pm - 4:30 pm EDT
Join the National Resource Center on Domestic Violence (NRCDV) for its annual Policy and Research Briefing on Thursday, August 27 at 3pm ET.
This year, NRCDV is excited to spotlight a collaboration between the National Center on Domestic Violence, Trauma, and Mental Health (NCDVTMH), the National Domestic Violence Hotline, and StrongHearts Native Helpline. NCDVTMH will share findings from a national survey of more than 14,000 survivors about the impacts of mental health and substance use coercion on their housing. Attendees will also hear from Women In Transition (WIT), an organization in Philadelphia that provides free and confidential domestic violence and substance use services. To close, NRCDV will offer policy recommendations to ensure safe housing for survivors with behavioral health needs.
Presenters:
Heather Phillips, Research Director, NCDVTMH
Irene Brantley, Program Director, Women In Transition
Ingrid Anderson, Advocacy Manager, NRCDV
