implementation of the Head Start Safe Families Safe Homes (SFSH) 
domestic violence training curriculum. The Office of Head Start, within 
the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) of the Department of 
Health and Human Services (HHS), is partnering with the Division of 
Family Violence Prevention of the Family and Youth Services Bureau of 
the Administration on Children, Youth and Families (ACYF), also located

staff and build stronger partnerships with domestic violence service 
providers in local communities. Teams of trainers in each of five 
states are leading training sessions for 50 participants. The follow-up 
evaluation will examine implementation of the training curriculum in 
each of the states. All participants in the local trainings will be 
asked to complete a brief survey, which will be conducted online. Two 
members of each of the state leadership teams will be asked to complete 
a semi-structured phone interview.
    Respondents: Head Start staff, state agency staff (e.g., Head Start 
Collaboration Directors, Domestic Violence Coalition Directors).
