Safe Families Project
The Safe Families project is a collaboration between Association of Maternal and Child Health Programs (AMCHP) and the Family Violence Prevention Fund to work nationally on safe motherhood and health disparity initiatives. The mission of the Massachusetts Safe Families project is to build the knowledge and capacity of state-level MCH professionals and their community partners to integrate family violence prevention, assessment and intervention into community-based programming. The project works to develop an institutionalized expectation for trauma-informed practice across service systems that serve the MCH population.
