Safe Families for Children provides a safe, temporary place for children whose parents are overwhelmed and have limited resources or social supports. Placements can avert immediate abuse episodes, and allow time and space for the parent to actively address issues without the threat of losing custody. In some cases, Safe Families volunteers become the extended family that a parent never had, providing encouragement and support even after the placement ends.
