The Butterfly Project

Support to Children and Families Exposed to Violence

The Butterfly Project provides children and families who have experienced domestic violence, family violence and community violence with a comprehensive continuum of care. The program addresses the issue of children’s exposure to violence by providing community education, training and direct services to children, ages 0-5, who have been exposed to violence.

The Butterfly Project focuses on the unmet needs of children and families by providing home visiting services, resource and referral, case management, individual counseling, play therapy, family counseling, and other therapeutic services to children, ages 0-5, who have been impacted by violence, but are not involved in the formal child welfare system.

The Butterfly Project reaches the most vulnerable children and families, including families who have not traditionally engaged in family services. This program provides an avenue to prevent children’s exposure to violence and an intervention plan for those children who have already been exposed.

The Butterfly Project is offered in the Mid-Central Region.
