The National Family Preservation Network (NFPN) is a private nonprofit founded in 1992 that serves as a national voice for family preservation. NFPN develops and disseminates research-based assessment tools (e.g., the NCFAS series), provides training and technical assistance to child- and family-serving agencies, and promotes practices that support family preservation, reunification, and father involvement.
Advocates for child welfare policies that prioritize family preservation and reunification, support in-home and community-based prevention services, funding for evidence-based assessment and workforce training, father-involvement initiatives, kinship care supports, and adoption of practice standards that reduce unnecessary out-of-home placements.
Primarily fee-for-service revenue from sales and licensing of assessment tools and paid trainings, supplemented by foundation and government grants, contracts, and individual donations.
Works with state and local child welfare agencies and service providers; board and partner affiliations include Health Connect America, Family Facets, CHRIS 180, Coastal Horizons Center, Specialized Alternatives for Families & Youth, and Canopy Children's Solutions.
