Annual Program Statistics and Outcomes for Women’s Transition Housing and Supports Program
Description BC Housing’s Women’s Transition Housing and Supports Program (WTHSP) funds more than 100 transition houses, safe homes, and second stage housing for women — with or without children — who are at risk of violence, or who have experienced violence. These programs provide women and children with a temporary place to stay, support services, referrals and assistance in planning next steps. Each quarter, transition houses, safe homes, and second stage housing sites funded through WTHSP submit forms to BC Housing, recording administrative and outcome data regarding the programs. The report shows data aggregated among each of the three WTHSP program types and trend data where available. Impact This data informs program planning as well as cross-government research, and demonstrates accountability for funding of the Women’s Transition Housing and Supports Program. The annual reports also provide information to WTHSP providers and other stakeholders about the demographics and outcomes of those accessing WTHSP programs to support planning processes.
