Or….if you’re interested in learning more about Safe Families…
When a crisis strikes, many of us rely on relatives and friends for support. But for some families, poverty and social isolation mean that they have no support when they need it.
Children in these situations often suffer neglect or abuse; some eventually are removed from their home and placed in state custody. Safe Families for Children provides a chance for parents to get back on their feet before abuse and neglect occur.
Parents experiencing a temporary crisis can arrange for their children to stay with families while they address the issues that led to their situation.
