| Summary |
| The goal is to build in partnership with communities a national network of Parents Anonymous programs to prevent and treat child abuse and neglect by strengthening families. The network will collaborate with community-based family resource and support programs. This collaboration will foster the development of a continuum of community-based prevention services created to respond to the needs of families and will form a bridge between shared leadership strategies and more traditional helping programs. |
