Tools and resources


Welcome to the Department of Human Services (DHS) Self Sufficiency Programs Domestic Violence resource site. This site provides information on domestic violence related policies in the Temporary Assistance to Needy Families (TANF) and Temporary Assistance for Domestic Violence Survivors (TA-DVS) programs.

The site was developed to support the needs of department staff and community partners as they work together in the support of survivors of domestic violence.

The site also provides access to information about domestic violence and sexual assault services throughout Oregon.
