The National Clearinghouse on Families & Youth (NCFY) family violence prevention database contains abstracts of publications that focus on domestic and relationship violence prevention.
NCFY maintains a Reading Room which houses the publications in our collection for those interested in reviewing materials in the Clearinghouse collection.
The Reading Room is located at:
5515 Security Lane, Suite 6008
Rockville, MD 20852
Open Monday through Friday, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
While guests are always invited to the Reading Room during open hours, please e-mail us at ncfy@acf.hhs.gov or call us at 301-608-8098 before visiting to ensure that staff will be available to assist you.
