HUD recently requested public comment on plans to implement the key changes made by the VAWA Reauthorization Act of 2022 (VAWA 2022) to the Violence Against Women Act of 1994. VAWA 2022 was passed in March 2022, and it became effective on Oct. 1, 2022. The Violence Against Women Act provides housing protections for survivors of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and/or stalking. Despite the name of the law, VAWA’s protections apply regardless of sex, sexual orientation, or gender identity.
