    Expanding Supportive Housing for Survivor Stability

    In the heart of Skid Row, where hundreds of women live unsheltered, the Downtown Women’s Center offers rapid rehousing services for survivors of domestic violence. We offer immediate safety and long-term healing for survivors through trauma-informed wraparound services—such as case management, mental health care, and peer support—and survivor-led programming, ensuring that women can move from danger to dignity in a system designed to meet their unique needs. Funding will strengthen a proven pathway from crisis to stability.
