Abstract	Public enforcement agencies such as criminal justice, child welfare, and immigration directly or indirectly impact children and families, often through mandated requirements and forced separations. As a result, families involved with these agencies can be wary of trusting early childhood home visitors and mental health providers. Through case description, including the mother's own words, we present an intervention model that pairs a family partner with direct experience in the criminal justice system as an intervention partner with an infant mental health specialist in order to create increased trust and a safety net of services around the family. Specifics about the model and lessons learned are shared to promote best practice in programs offering services to this vulnerable population of families. (As Provided).
