Every year several million kids across the US find themselves living in a home in crisis.
Poverty, loss of a job or home, or other circumstances often result in children being neglected or worse. Government and Social Services have to settle for working with only the most severe cases of abuse and maltreatment. The end result is more than 90% of reported maltreatment cases aren’t severe enough for government intervention and the cycle continues.
90% Of Reported Cases Go Unserved
There simply aren’t enough resources to meet the need but there is wide agreement that earlier intervention and prevention would be better for everyone. Until now, no solution or alternatives could be found.
Safe Families for Children is proving to be the best way to maximize impact for the dollars spent – and private funding means Safe Families can continue without interruption when administrations or priorities for social services dollars change.
Safe Families for Children is revolutionizing child welfare, steming the tide of abuse by coming around families before thier situation gets so bad kids must be forcibly removed from the home.
