  • September 2021

    With help from the National Housing Law Project, we revised 8 questions in our VAWA Housing Protections page. Among the changes we made are clarifying that the laws apply not only to victims of domestic violence but also dating violence, stalking, and sexual assault. We also added more examples and better explained terms in the law such as “family breakup.” Changes made in English. Spanish translation of the whole section, soon to come.

    We added five courthouses to our Louisiana Courthouse Locations page and updated information for an additional 52 courthouses.
