Notice of Occupancy Rights under the Violence Against Women Act
2
To all Tenants and Applicants
The Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) provides protections for victims of domestic
violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking. VAWA protections are not only available
to women, but are available equally to all individuals regardless of sex, gender identity, or sexual
orientation.
3
The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) is the Federal
agency that oversees that Section 8 Rental Assistance is in compliance with VAWA. This
notice explains your rights under VAWA. A HUD-approved certification form is attached to this
notice. You can fill out this form to show that you are or have been a victim of domestic
violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking, and that you wish to use your rights under
VAWA.”
Protections for Applicants
If you otherwise qualify for assistance under HUD Section 8, you cannot be denied admission or
denied assistance because you are or have been a victim of domestic violence, dating violence,
sexual assault, or stalking.
Protections for Tenants
1
The notice uses HP for housing provider but the housing provider should insert its name where HP is used.
HUD’s program-specific regulations identify the individual or entity responsible for providing the notice of
occupancy rights.
2
Despite the name of this law, VAWA protection is available regardless of sex, gender identity, or sexual
orientation.
3
Housing providers cannot discriminate on the basis of any protected characteristic, including race, color, national
origin, religion, sex, familial status, disability, or age. HUD-assisted and HUD-insured housing must be made
available to all otherwise eligible individuals regardless of actual or perceived sexual orientation, gender identity, or
marital status.
2
Form HUD-5380
(12/2016)
If you are receiving assistance under HUD Section 8, you may not be denied assistance,
terminated from participation, or be evicted from your rental housing because you are or have
been a victim of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking.
Also, if you or an affiliated individual of yours is or has been the victim of domestic violence,
dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking by a member of your household or any guest, you
may not be denied rental assistance or occupancy rights under HUD Section 8 solely on the basis
of criminal activity directly relating to that domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or
stalking.
Affiliated individual means your spouse, parent, brother, sister, or child, or a person to whom
you stand in the place of a parent or guardian (for example, the affiliated individual is in your
care, custody, or control); or any individual, tenant, or lawful occupant living in your household.
Removing the Abuser or Perpetrator from the Household
HODGES DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION may divide (bifurcate) your lease in order to
evict the individual or terminate the assistance of the individual who has engaged in criminal
activity (the abuser or perpetrator) directly relating to domestic violence, dating violence, sexual
assault, or stalking.
If HODGES DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION chooses to remove the abuser or perpetrator,
HODGES DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION may not take away the rights of eligible tenants
to the unit or otherwise punish the remaining tenants. If the evicted abuser or perpetrator was the
sole tenant to have established eligibility for assistance under the program, HODGES
DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION must allow the tenant who is or has been a victim and other
household members to remain in the unit for a period of time, in order to establish eligibility

under the program or under another HUD housing program covered by VAWA, or, find
alternative housing.
In removing the abuser or perpetrator from the household, HODGES DEVELOPMENT
CORPORATION must follow Federal, State, and local eviction procedures. In order to divide a
lease, HODGES DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION may, but is not required to, ask you for
documentation or certification of the incidences of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual
assault, or stalking.
Moving to Another Unit
Upon your request, HODGES DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION may permit you to move to
another unit, subject to the availability of other units, and still keep your assistance. In order to
approve a request, HODGES DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION may ask you to provide
documentation that you are requesting to move because of an incidence of domestic violence,
dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking. If the request is a request for emergency transfer, the
housing provider may ask you to submit a written request or fill out a form where you certify that
you meet the criteria for an emergency transfer under VAWA. The criteria are:
(1) You are a victim of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or
stalking. If your housing provider does not already have documentation that you
are a victim of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking, your
housing provider may ask you for such documentation, as described in the
documentation section below.
(2) You expressly request the emergency transfer. Your housing provider may
choose to require that you submit a form, or may accept another written or oral
request.
4
Form HUD-5380
(12/2016)
(3) You reasonably believe you are threatened with imminent harm from
further violence if you remain in your current unit. This means you have a
reason to fear that if you do not receive a transfer you would suffer violence in the
very near future.
OR
You are a victim of sexual assault and the assault occurred on the premises
during the 90-calendar-day period before you request a transfer. If you are a
victim of sexual assault, then in addition to qualifying for an emergency transfer
because you reasonably believe you are threatened with imminent harm from
further violence if you remain in your unit, you may qualify for an emergency
transfer if the sexual assault occurred on the premises of the property from which
you are seeking your transfer, and that assault happened within the 90-calendar-day
period before you expressly request the transfer.
HODGES DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION will keep confidential requests for emergency
transfers by victims of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking, and the
location of any move by such victims and their families.
HODGES DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION’s emergency transfer plan provides further
information on emergency transfers, and HODGES DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION must
make a copy of its emergency transfer plan available to you if you ask to see it.
Documenting You Are or Have Been a Victim of Domestic Violence, Dating Violence,
Sexual Assault or Stalking
HODGES DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION can, but is not required to, ask you to provide
documentation to “certify” that you are or have been a victim of domestic violence, dating

violence, sexual assault, or stalking. Such request from HODGES DEVELOPMENT
CORPORATION must be in writing, and HODGES DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION must
give you at least 14 business days (Saturdays, Sundays, and Federal holidays do not count) from
the day you receive the request to provide the documentation. HODGES DEVELOPMENT
CORPORATION may, but does not have to, extend the deadline for the submission of
documentation upon your request.
You can provide one of the following to HODGES DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION as
documentation. It is your choice which of the following to submit if HODGES
DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION asks you to provide documentation that you are or have
been a victim of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking.
A complete HUD-approved certification form given to you by HODGES
DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION with this notice, that documents an incident of
domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking. The form will ask for your
name, the date, time, and location of the incident of domestic violence, dating violence,
sexual assault, or stalking, and a description of the incident. The certification form
provides for including the name of the abuser or perpetrator if the name of the abuser or
perpetrator is known and is safe to provide.
A record of a Federal, State, tribal, territorial, or local law enforcement agency, court, or
administrative agency that documents the incident of domestic violence, dating violence,
sexual assault, or stalking. Examples of such records include police reports, protective
orders, and restraining orders, among others.
A statement, which you must sign, along with the signature of an employee, agent, or
volunteer of a victim service provider, an attorney, a medical professional or a mental
health professional (collectively, “professional”) from whom you sought assistance in

or she believes that the incident or incidents of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual
assault, or stalking are grounds for protection.
Any other statement or evidence that HODGES DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION has
agreed to accept.
If you fail or refuse to provide one of these documents within the 14 business days, HODGES
DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION does not have to provide you with the protections contained
in this notice.
If HODGES DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION receives conflicting evidence that an incident
of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking has been committed (such as

Form HUD-5380
(12/2016)
HODGES DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION must not allow any individual administering
assistance or other services on behalf of HODGES DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION (for
example, employees and contractors) to have access to confidential information unless for
reasons that specifically call for these individuals to have access to this information under
applicable Federal, State, or local law.
HODGES DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION must not enter your information into any shared
database or disclose your information to any other entity or individual. HODGES
DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION, however, may disclose the information provided if:
You give written permission to HODGES DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION to release
the information on a time limited basis.
HODGES DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION needs to use the information in an
eviction or termination proceeding, such as to evict your abuser or perpetrator or
terminate your abuser or perpetrator from assistance under this program.
A law requires HODGES DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION or your landlord to release
the information.
VAWA does not limit HODGES DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION’s duty to honor court
orders about access to or control of the property. This includes orders issued to protect a victim
and orders dividing property among household members in cases where a family breaks up.
Reasons a Tenant Eligible for Occupancy Rights under VAWA May Be Evicted or
Assistance May Be Terminated
You can be evicted and your assistance can be terminated for serious or repeated lease violations
that are not related to domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking committed
against you. However, HODGES DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION cannot hold tenants who
8
Form HUD-5380
(12/2016)
have been victims of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking to a more
demanding set of rules than it applies to tenants who have not been victims of domestic violence,
dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking.
The protections described in this notice might not apply, and you could be evicted and your
assistance terminated, if HODGES DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION can demonstrate that not
evicting you or terminating your assistance would present a real physical danger that:
1) Would occur within an immediate time frame, and
2) Could result in death or serious bodily harm to other tenants or those who work on the
property.
If HODGES DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION can demonstrate the above, HODGES
DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION should only terminate your assistance or evict you if there
are no other actions that could be taken to reduce or eliminate the threat.
Other Laws
VAWA does not replace any Federal, State, or local law that provides greater protection for
victims of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking. You may be entitled to
additional housing protections for victims of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault,
or stalking under other Federal laws, as well as under State and local laws.

CERTIFICATION OF U.S. Department of Housing OMB Approval No. 2577-0286
DOMESTIC VIOLENCE, and Urban Development Exp. 06/30/2017
DATING VIOLENCE, SEXUAL ASSAULT, OR STALKING,
AND ALTERNATE DOCUMENTATION
Purpose of Form: The Violence Against Women Act (“VAWA”) protects applicants, tenants, and
program participants in certain HUD programs from being evicted, denied housing assistance, or
terminated from housing assistance based on acts of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or
stalking against them. Despite the name of this law, VAWA protection is available to victims of domestic
violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking, regardless of sex, gender identity, or sexual
orientation.
Use of This Optional Form: If you are seeking VAWA protections from your housing provider, your
housing provider may give you a written request that asks you to submit documentation about the incident
or incidents of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking.
In response to this request, you or someone on your behalf may complete this optional form and submit it
to your housing provider, or you may submit one of the following types of third-party documentation:
(1) A document signed by you and an employee, agent, or volunteer of a victim service provider, an
attorney, or medical professional, or a mental health professional (collectively, “professional”) from
whom you have sought assistance relating to domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or
stalking, or the effects of abuse. The document must specify, under penalty of perjury, that the
professional believes the incident or incidents of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or
stalking occurred and meet the definition of “domestic violence,” “dating violence,” “sexual assault,” or
“stalking” in HUD’s regulations at 24 CFR 5.2003.
(2) A record of a Federal, State, tribal, territorial or local law enforcement agency, court, or
administrative agency; or
(3) At the discretion of the housing provider, a statement or other evidence provided by the applicant
or tenant.
Submission of Documentation: The time period to submit documentation is 14 business days from the date that you
receive a written request from your housing provider asking that you provide documentation of the occurrence of
domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking. Your housing provider may, but is not required to,
extend the time period to submit the documentation, if you request an extension of the time period. If the requested
information is not received within 14 business days of when you received the request for the documentation, or any
extension of the date provided by your housing provider, your housing provider does not need to grant you any of the
VAWA protections. Distribution or issuance of this form does not serve as a written request for certification.
Confidentiality: All information provided to your housing provider concerning the incident(s) of domestic
violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking shall be kept confidential and such details shall not be entered
into any shared database. Employees of your housing provider are not to have access to these details unless to grant
or deny VAWA protections to you, and such employees may not disclose this information to any other entity or
individual, except to the extent that disclosure is: (i) consented to by you in writing in a time-limited release; (ii)
required for use in an eviction proceeding or hearing regarding termination of assistance; or (iii) otherwise required
by applicable law.
