When I was in high school my community set up a program in which families could sign up to be on a "safe homes" list. If a child or teen was in danger (due to domestic violence at home, etc)., they could go to one of the houses on the safe home list.
Now that I'm an adult I'd like to register to be one of the safe homes, but I can't remember what the name of this program was. Any ideas?

I believe it was called the "Safe House" project. I remember the homes would have yellow and red signs in their windows.
Unfortunately, the last I heard the program was discontinued because it could not afford to do background checks on everyone who applied.
I did a quick search on yahoo for Safe house and got several hits for local charities, but as I said I think the national program was discontinued.
