Family Violence Indicator: Number of Homeless Adults Who Report Having Experienced Domestic Violence

The number of homeless adults who reported they were victims of domestic violence, by Continuum of Care and calendar year.

Source: Data provided by the Homelessness Resource Exchange, U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development and Virginia Department of Housing and Community Development.

Notes:

Data for 2016 is still preliminary and has not yet been published by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. Final data should be available online in December 2016.

Danville/Martinsville, Petersburg, and Staunton/Waynsboro/Augusta/Highland Counties CoCs will show as NA or blank from 2016 on and that data will be captured into Balance of State CoC.

This indicator represents the number of homeless adults who, during the annual homelessness point-in-time count, reported that they were victims of domestic violence. This figure represents a snapshot rather than an annual average of homeless persons who have experienced domestic violence.
