    This set of fact sheets present national, provincial and territorial data on shelters that provide residential services to abused women and their children.

Additionally, through the use of a snapshot day survey (mid-April of the collection year), selected characteristics of residents (i.e., reasons for coming to the shelter, relationship to abuser, repeat stays, etc.) are collected.
