An Act relative to survivor sustainability and financial independence

Summary

The legislation changes how housing providers calculate eligibility, requiring them to subtract survivor subsidies before applying income tests and to use liquid assets rather than gross income for survivors of abuse. It also obligates tax‑credit projects and state‑linked housing programs to accept survivors regardless of employment status, protects children’s school continuity, and prevents officials from discouraging survivors from seeking housing.
