Maddy summaryThis bill requires local public housing authorities to give domestic violence survivors the same priority on waiting lists as other vulnerable groups, such as the disabled, elderly, and homeless. To qualify for this priority, a survivor must either still be living in a home where violence continues or have left their home due to violence and not yet moved into standard permanent replacement housing.
