2018 Overview and Evaluation Data Briefing

Written By

Our 2018 Overview and Evaluation Data Briefing includes:

  1. An overview of the Safe & Together Model's implementation across numerous states in the US and internationally

  2. Evidence of the Model's effectiveness, particularly in Florida where data showed domestic violence–related removals of children decreased from 20.6% to 9.1% over an 18-month period

  3. The Model's core philosophy, which is perpetrator pattern-based, child-centered, and survivor strengths-focused

  4. Key characteristics of the Model, including its:

    • Fact-based approach

    • Gender-responsive framework

    • Integration with other child welfare initiatives

    • "Beyond services" perspective that goes deeper than standard referrals

  5. Emphasis on collaboration between child welfare and domestic violence advocates
