“Safe & Together as a cross-system collaborative model sets the stage for all areas of our work. Understanding how to work together with other systems is vital to dealing with complex issues, such as the opioid epidemic and the crisis it creates for families and children. Joint ownership over addressing this crisis was critical to moving the needle forward in Ohio. The Safe & Together Model gave me a framework for when mental illness and substance abuse met domestic violence and allowed for cooperative training and a shared and common understanding of how to work together for the best interest of children and families. It isn’t rocket science, it’s easy to apply and easy to understand.”
