What is VAWA
VAWA stands for the Violence Against Women Act. VAWA aims to provide support and resources for victims of domestic violence, sexual assault, stalking, and other forms of gender-based violence. It also enhances legal protections and strengthens law enforcement responses to these crimes.
VAWA Protections
If you are an applicant and qualify for assistance under Southern Nevada Regional Housing Authority (SNRHA), you cannot be denied admission or denied assistance because you are or have been a victim of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking. If you are a resident or program participant, and you are receiving assistance under SNRHA, you may not be denied assistance, terminated from participation, or be evicted from your rental housing because you are or have been a victim of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking.
SNRHA does not discriminate against victims of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault or stalking. VAWA protections are available equally to all individuals regardless of sex, gender identity, or sexual orientation.
