    Strengthening Indiana Families Mid Project Report 2019-2022
    (2022) Mariscal, Susana; Victor, Bryan G.
    In 2019, we embarked on a collaborative journey with the Indiana Department of Child Services and the Indiana Department of Health to prevent child maltreatment by supporting families, building on family strengths and protective factors, reducing risk factors, and engaging community resources and connections. We received a $2.74 million five-year grant from the U.S. Children’s Bureau (Administration for Children and Families, USDHHS) in October 2019 and began engaging state and local partners, including individuals with lived experiences, in this transformative venture. We allowed ourselves to dream of strong and caring communities throughout Indiana where families have equitable access to the resources they need to be connected and safe. Working together with our partners to fulfill this vision and guided by our values and principles, we are implementing four family resource centers in Delaware, Grant, Madison, and Tipton Counties.
