Creating Opportunities for Safety and Change in Supervised Visitation Programs: A Policy Framework for Engaging Men Who Use Violence

Engaging Men Policy Framework Paper ScreenshotFUTURES, in partnership with Inspire Action for Social Change, developed a framework designed to help supervised visitation providers and their community partners create a more institutionalized and seamless approach to engaging with men who use violence.
