Is there a model shelter rules/policies for domestic violence programs?
Although there is no national model in terms of shelter rules’ design and implementation, there are programs and state coalitions in the country that have done very progressive work in this area. The focus of their work reflects a survivor-centered advocacy approach. What follows are resources available from the Washington State Coalition Against Domestic Violence (WSCADV) that provide valuable information on this topic.
