			In 2021 the organization received a $575,000 grant from the Office on Violence Against Women which would provide survivors of sexual or domestic violence with 6-24 months of rent assistance. Those receiving aid would have have access to resources including medical, legal and social service advocacy, counseling, and educational/occupational support.

			In 2021 Riverview served 14 counties in northeast Iowa in addition to Jo Daviess and Carrol counties in Illinois. An estimated 10% of the 1,600 people receiving non-profit service in 2020 faced emergency housing issues. To address these needs, Riverview worked with the Dubuque Community YMCA/YWCA Victim Services Shelter, Opening Doors, and Almost Home. The grant would allow Riverview to expand these partnership and reach additional clients. (2)
