Study Aims to Improve Safe Access
The SAVES demonstration is a 5-year project (awarded September 2022) operating at 13 sites (12 states and one tribal jurisdiction) and aims to increase safe access to child support, parenting time, and parentage services for survivors of domestic violence by identifying barriers and promising practices.
DV Survivors Asked to Participate
The SAVES study will ask domestic-violence (DV) survivors who are parents to take part one time in year 4. Specifically, the proposal shows 100 survivors for qualitative interviews (screener only 0.083 hours; screener plus interview 1 hour) and 2,000 survivors for a quantitative online survey (screener 0.083 hours; survey 0.33 hours).
Advocates, Staff, and Clients Also Surveyed
The SAVES Center will collect one-time data in year 4 from DV advocates, child support staff, and clients at the 13 demonstration sites: 1,200 advocates (0.33 hours each), 65 child support staff in focus groups (1.5 hours each), and 65 client interviews (0.75 hours each).
