AB  - The social, financial, and emotional repercussions of the COVID-19 pandemic has 
      left many organizations that support survivors of intimate partner violence 
      questioning how to maintain core services while addressing compounding 
      individual, organizational, and public health issues. Stay-at-home orders and 
      other COVID-19 mitigation strategies have resulted in reduced shelter 
      availability and increased intimate partner violence rates. Coupled with the 
      economic impact of the pandemic, these factors have threatened financial and 
      housing stability. To better understand these challenges and provide immediate 
      support, The National Alliance for Safe Housing (NASH) co-hosted a peer support 
      call to provide a virtual platform for practitioners to ask questions, discuss 
      challenges, and share strategies for quality service provision during the 
      COVID-19 pandemic. Over 800 practitioners from across the United States 
      participated in the NASH call, most of whom were advocates, program directors, 
      and managers. NASH gathered data on practitioners' needs from a brief survey from 
      the registration form analyzed using conventional inductive content analysis. 
      Practitioners' primary concerns were situated within eight questions, which we 
      categorized into four meta-categories: (1) managing residential housing programs; 
      (2) getting survivors materials resources; (3) keeping staff safe; and (4) 
      maintaining organizational operations. The paper concludes with 
      community-grounded and empirically supported practice recommendations aligned 
      with practitioners' expressed needs.
