Nowhere to run
For many women, homelessness begins with domestic violence and nowhere safe to run to.
Domestic violence is a leading driver of homelessness for women and children. Taking the bold step to escape abuse often means losing housing overnight.
In fact, 57% of women who experience homelessness in the U.S. say that domestic violence was the primary cause.

Homelessness doesn’t start on the street.
It starts behind a closed door where what a woman thought was “love” gets twisted. Her partner turns control into violence, and violence turns into eviction, job loss, and isolation. When a woman chooses safety, it means she loses everything else. Homelessness begins the instant she runs out the door.
— Running from an abusive partner
— Running without a plan
— Running just to survive

And once she flees, she often faces a second crisis: no door to knock on. No home that will protect her. Nowhere to run.
