Title: Violence Against Women Reauthorization Act of 2013: Implementation in HUD Housing Programs (FR-5720) | |
Abstract:
This rule would amend HUD's regulations to fully implement the requirements of the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) as reauthorized in 2013 under the Violence Against Women Reauthorization Act of 2013 (VAWA 2013). VAWA 2013 provides enhanced statutory protections for victims of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking. VAWA 2013 also expands VAWA protections to HUD programs beyond HUD's public housing and the Section 8 programs which were covered by the reauthorization of VAWA in 2005 (VAWA 2005). In addition to regulatory amendments to fully implement VAWA 2013, HUD is also publishing two documents concerning tenant protections required by VAWA 2013 – a notice of occupancy rights and an emergency transfer plan. Although VAWA refers to women in its title, the statute makes clear that the protections are for all victims of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking, regardless of sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, or age. |
