Safe Families for Children is a national volunteer-driven and professionally supported movement seeking to bring the church and community together in keeping children safe and families together.
Rooted in faith and fueled by radical hospitality, disruptive generosity, and intentional compassion, its mission is to create a world in which children are safe, and families are transformed and strengthened through deeply compassionate communities. Through the power of relationship, Safe Families for Children mobilizes heart-driven volunteers to become extended family-like support for families who are facing a crisis or hardship and have no one to call.
The goal of Safe Families for Children is to provide hope and encouragement, to support and strengthen isolated families, to prevent child abuse and neglect, and to reduce the number of vulnerable children who unnecessarily enter the child welfare system.
