Nowhere to Go: Gender-based violence and housing insecurity in Ontario

23 Jul 2024 – Gender-based violence (GBV) and intimate partner/interpersonal violence (IPV) are pervasive problems impacting millions of women and gender-diverse people across Canada. However, a knowledge gap exists in understanding the relationship between GBV and housing insecurity. To address this, CCHR undertook a research project to examine the relationship between GBV and housing insecurity in five Ontario communities. This report presents key findings from our research with service providers and survivors of GBV or IPV to illustrate how the ongoing crisis of housing affordability in Ontario is impacting survivors’ pathways out of contexts in which they are experiencing violence.
