Housing Crisis Fuels Violence and Dropout Rates

New research from Quebec reveals how the housing crisis is fueling deeper social crises — from soaring domestic violence rates to kids dropping out of school — all tied to overcrowding and unaffordable living. The study finds that cramped, deteriorating homes increase domestic violence risk by 7.8%, trap victims in unsafe situations due to cost, and leave children 80% more likely to quit school. The economic toll? Billions lost in healthcare, education, and productivity. This isn’t just about shelter — it’s a call for urgent investment in social housing to rebuild healthier, more stable communities.
