Safe & Together: An Introduction to the Model

Children are best served when we can work toward keeping them safe and together with the non-offending parent (the adult domestic abuse survivor). The Model provides a framework for partnering with domestic violence survivors and intervening with domestic violence perpetrators in order to enhance the safety and well-being of children.

Many families impacted by domestic abuse perpetrators’ behaviors have multiple, complex, intersecting issues. Using an intersections framework, versus a co-occurrence framework, we increase perpetrator accountability, improve our ability to diagnose and treat each member of the family, and improve our ability to help the adult and children survivors.

Partnering with adult survivors around the safety and well-being of their children is a central focus of domestic abuse–informed practice. By working with, not against, the adult survivor, practitioners are more likely to be successful in their role related to child safety and well-being, and the survivor is more apt to share information that will improve assessment and lead to the development of more effective safety plans for the adult survivor and children.
