Overview

Mission

The mission of the nrcdv is to strengthen and transform efforts to end domestic violence.

What it reported doing in 2024

A project of the nrcdv national capacity building center on safe and supportive housing for domestic violence survivors, safe housing partnerships, addresses the connections between domestic and sexual violence and safe, affordable housing. Safehousingpartnerships.org is a on-line resource library of strategies, resources, case studies, reports, and statistics that providers, policy makers, and advocates can use to enhance services and better meet the needs of survivors who are or are at risk of becoming homeless. The nrcdv supports the federal safe housing partnerships consortium, which is an innovative, collaborative approach to providing training, technical assistance, and resource development at the critical intersection of domestic and sexual violence, homelessness, and housing.

Operating model

Revenue model
Grant-funded. 100% of the money available for current operations came from government grants.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
