Family Justice Journal: ROI of a Rural Family Resource Center

The Summer 2025 edition of the Family Justice Journal features the peer-reviewed publication of the second social return on investment (SROI) study of Family Resource Centers (FRCs). This published research is helping FRCs gain recognition as an evidence-based model, demonstrating that every $1 invested in an FRC in a rural county in the Western U.S. resulted in $2.92 of savings for the child welfare system. The first publication of the SROI study can be accessed here.
